于莲华坛城(“火之城”围界)的中角与外角处,当在莲房中书写伽摩种子音(Kāma-bīja),并与所求之事(sādhya)相连。于莲瓣上安置六字之咒——“制伏六门之敌”——以摄持六根之门。继而以前置“夏克蒂”(Śakti)与“室利”(Śrī),书写护心之音节,排列为二九之数(十八字);又于诸中间覆层内,次第书写以第十字为终的十字群,以及殊胜阿努瓦里亚(Anuvarya)之十字真言——各各依次安置于莲华之上。
Sanatkumara (in dialogue teaching Narada technical mantra-vidhi)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: shanta
It presents a precise mantra–yantra procedure: placing specific bījas and protective syllables in the lotus’s pericarp, petals, and enclosures so that the sādhaka’s intention is supported by controlled senses and stabilized mind.
Though technical, the structure assumes surrender to divine Śakti and Śrī and disciplined sense-restraint; such inner order is treated as supportive to focused worship and remembrance, which are core to bhakti-oriented practice.
Ritual-technical knowledge: mantra-nyāsa, syllabic mapping (akṣara-vinyāsa), and diagrammatic placement (yantra-lekhana) used for protective and goal-oriented rites—typical of the Purana’s technical-science material in Book 1.3.
