मातंग्यंताः प्रविन्यस्ये द्वामां ज्येष्ठमतः परम् । रौद्रीं प्रशांतां श्रद्धाख्यां पुनर्माहेश्वरीमथ ॥ १२३ ॥

It emphasizes disciplined ritual order (krama) in mantra/śakti placement: spiritual power is approached through correct sequencing, moving from fierce (Raudrī) toward pacified (Praśāntā) and faith (Śraddhā), culminating in Māheśvarī.
Though technical, the inclusion of Śraddhā (faith) signals that successful practice is not merely mechanical—devotional trust supports and completes the ritual process.
A procedural, śāstra-style enumeration used in ritual application (nyāsa/krama), reflecting the technical method prized in Vedanga-aligned disciplines for correct placement and order.
