Om—hrīṃ, śrīṃ, klīṃ, hrūṃ—salam. Wahai Puruṣottama, yang tiada tandingan, kediaman Lakṣmī, penggoncang dunia, yang memikat hati semua wanita, yang memabukkan tiga dunia. Wahai yang indah: bakarlah, bakarlah minda manusia; keringkanlah, keringkanlah; bunuhlah, bunuhlah; lumpuhkanlah, lumpuhkanlah; tariklah, tariklah. Wahai yang maha suci, pukullah si fulan ini dengan cakra, gada, pedang, dan semua panah; hancurkanlah dengan jerat; pukullah dengan kusa. Selamatkanlah sehingga apa yang aku inginkan tercapai.
Unspecified in the provided excerpt (mantra passage; likely quoted within a Vishnu–Garuda dialogue context, but not determinable from this verse alone).
Concept: Mantra is presented as a causal instrument (kriyā-śakti) to produce specific effects—stambhana, ākarṣaṇa, māraṇa, etc.—through divine agency invoked by bīja and nāma.
Vedantic Theme: Tension between īśvara-bhakti and instrumentalization of the divine for kāmya/abhicāra ends; highlights the Purāṇic accommodation of mantra-prayoga within a theistic frame.
Application: If approached as text-study: treat as a historical specimen of kāmya-mantra language; in practice, prioritize sāttvika Vaiṣṇava japa and ethical intention, and avoid harmful/violent prayogas.
Primary Rasa: raudra
Secondary Rasa: bhayanaka

FAQs
They function as seed-syllables that ‘encode’ devotional and ritual power in mantra-literature; here they frame an invocation addressed to Puruṣottama, intensifying the mantra’s intended effect (attraction/immobilization/dispelling) rather than conveying literal narrative meaning.
This specific verse does not describe the soul’s post-death journey; it is a forceful ritual-mantra style invocation. Any afterlife teaching would come from surrounding verses/chapters, not from this shloka’s content itself.
Treat it primarily as a textual witness to ritual/mantra traditions within the Purana; for personal practice, follow a qualified tradition/ācārya and prioritize the Garuda Purana’s broader ethical teachings (dharma, restraint, charity) over coercive or harmful ‘imperative’ mantra intentions.
