एवं ध्यात्वा तु हृत्पद्मे जगतः पितरौ शिवौ । जप्त्वा तदात्मकं मंत्रं तदंते बहिरर्चयेत्
evaṃ dhyātvā tu hṛtpadme jagataḥ pitarau śivau | japtvā tadātmakaṃ maṃtraṃ tadaṃte bahirarcayet
एवं हृत्पद्मे जगतः पितरौ शिवौ ध्यात्वा, तदात्मकं मन्त्रं जप्त्वा, तदन्ते बहिरर्चयेत्।

Inner worship (dhyāna and japa) should mature into outer worship (arcana), uniting contemplation with disciplined action.
