Như vậy tám aiśvarya đã được tuyên thuyết—chỉ là những hình tướng rực sáng. Trước đó, theo thứ tự, là năm Brahmā bắt đầu từ Hṛllekha và các vị tiếp theo.
Unspecified (contextual narrator/teacher within Brahmottarakhaṇḍa ritual instruction)
Scene: A luminous hierarchy diagram: five Brahmā-forms in a lower/inner preparatory band (Hṛllekha first), above/around them eight radiant aiśvarya-forms like flames or sunbursts, all converging toward the central Sadāśiva principle.
All powers and cosmic offices are ultimately expressions of divine radiance, approached in a disciplined, sequential worship.
No tīrtha is mentioned; the focus is on metaphysical ordering within ritual practice.
Follow a fixed sequence: recognize the five Brahmās (starting with Hṛllekha) and then the eight aiśvaryas as radiant forms within the āvaraṇa-pūjā.
