Shri Shaunaka said: 

1-3. O highly blessed Suta, well done. The great procedure of the Tantric cult as mentioned by Sanatkumara and which rescues the world, has been mentioned by you to us. O bestower of honour, what has been mentioned here to us by you of great mercy is inaccessible in other sacred cults and Puranas. What else did the holy sage Narada, engaged in rescuing the worlds, ask Sanatkumara the foremost among scholars? O good Sir, (please tell us.) 

Suta said:

4. O brahmin, after listening to the thousand name of the twin deities, Narada bowed down to Sanatkumara, the most excellent among wise men, and said. 

Narada said:

5. O brahmin, the procedures laid down in the Tantra texts have been mentioned to me. The great efficacy of Krishna’s mantra has been recounted there. 

6-8. Goddess Radha has been mentioned therein to be the foremost and the first. O omniscient one, please tell us the story of her partial incarnations along with the mantras as mentioned in the Tantras, as I have taken refuge unto you. O leading sage, the Tantras of Shakti as mentioned by Shiva are many. Kindly extract their essence entirely and tell them to us. On hearing these words of the noble-souled Narada, Sanatkumara brought in mind the lotus feet of Radha and said:

Sanatkumara said:

9-11. O Narada listen, I shall tell you how the partia incarnations of Radha of whom they are the Shaktis, originated. It is wonderful. I shall mention it along with the mantras to be practised. The deity whom I called Radha was born of the half of the body of Krishna. She is permanently residing in Goloka and is ever accompanied by Krişhņa. She is stationed in the middle of the mass of splendour and is of the nature of the visible and invisible worlds. 

12. O leading sage, once while Krishna was staying near her, Nårāyana himself was born of Krishna’s left side. 

13-15. Mahalakshmi was born of the left side of Radha. Then Krishna handed Mahalakshmi over to Nårāyana and established him in Vaikuntha entrusting him with the task of perpetual sustenance. 

Thereafter, O sage, from the pores of the hairs of the lord of Goloka were born innumerable cowherds of the same splendour and age. All of them became the favourite attendants of the lord, as if they were his very vital breath. 

16. From the process of the hairs in the body of Radha were born the cowherd lasses. In every respect they were similar to Radha. They were the sweet-speeched attendants of Radha. 

17. In the meantime, O brahmin, Durga, the eternal Maya of Vishnu suddenly manifested herself from the body of Krishna. 

18. She was in the form of the seed of all goddesses, the Mula Prakruti (original sources), Ishvari perfect in every detail, refulgent in form and features and consisting of three gunas. 

19. She was endowed with a thousand arms. She had different kinds of weapons. She had three eyes. She was as though the seed of the world as the tree. 

20-21. The lord of Radha offered her a jewelset throne. In the meantime, the four-faced deity was born there along with his wife. He was the most excellent among the wise. The glorious person was uttering Omkara and was holding a water pot. He was a sage and was born of the navel of Hari. 

22. Accompanied by his wife Savitri he eulogised the lord of all, O sage, at the behest of the lord, he sat on a beautiful seat. 

23. Then, O blessed one, Krishna split himself into two. The left half was Mahadeva and the right half was the lord of the cowherd lasses. 

24. The five-faced, three-eyed, and the one born of the left half who was eminent among the sages, eulogised Krishna. On being commanded he sat in front of Hari. 

25. Then Krishna said to the four-faced lord. O lord, carry on the function of creation ever remaining in Satyaloka. Go, remember me always. 

26. Thus urged by Hari, he bowed down to the lord of the universe and went away accompanied by his wife. It is he who really carried on creation, 

27. O excellent sage, he is our father and we, his mental creations, have obtained this body lasting for a Kalpa. There-after, highly intelligent one, Krishna spoke to the five-faced lord. 

28. O lord of the universe, take Durga unto you. As long as the creation goes on, perform penance in Shivaloka. At the end of it annihilate the entire worlds. 

29-30. After bowing to Krishna, he went to Shivaloka, Thereafter, on another occasion, O brahmin, Sarasvati was born of the mouth of Krishna, the highest lord. She held a lute and a book. The lord commanded her, “O honourable lady, repair to Vaikuntha. 

31. You stay near Lakshmi. You can have the benefit of four arms.” She bowed down to Krishna and went over to Nårāyana. 

32-33a. Thus, Radha turned herself into five forms as the cause of creation. O leading brahmin, listen. I shall mention the mantras, the mode of meditation and the worship of the one having perfect nature. He is the bestower of siddhis unto the worlds. 

33b-35. Kriya (ra) pratishtha (a), bindyadhyå adorned with bindu (.) (the combination gives the bija as ram) then the text drops some letters) then again Jnánamruta (ai) and kşhudhā (ya) which ends with svähä.1 Its sage is Sutapas, the metre is Gayatri, Radha is the deity, om is the bija and svaha is the Shakti. The anga rites are to be performed with the six syllables of the mantras adding bindu to them. 

1. In Narada Pancharatra chap. V/IX we find the mantra of Radha. Her own bija (ram) then hrim followed by klim, then Radhayai Svaha. In our text we find the mantra to contain mix syllables: Ram Radhayai Svaha. 

36-39. Thereafter, he shall meditate upon Radha, the wife of Krishna in his heart as follows: She has the complexion and the lustre of the white jasmine flower; she is as refulgent as a crore of moons; her face resembles the autumnal full moon. Her eyes are like the blue lotuses. Her buttocks and hips are excellent. She is charming with her lips like the ripe, bimba fruit. Her teeth shine like pearls and Kunda flowers. She is clad in a Silken garment sanctified in the fire. She appears splendid in the jewel-set shoulder lets, bangles and ear-rings. She is served by her beloved friends, the cowherd lasses with white chowries. She is stationed in the centre of the circle of Rasa. She is seated on a jewelled throne. 

40-43. After meditation, a handful of flowers is offered and the deity is worshipped along with the requisite service. He shall repeat the mantra six hundred thousand times. To the extent of one tenth of it he shall perform homa with gingelly seeds soaked in ghee. 

He shall worship avarana deities in the altar made of måtrukås. He shall worship angas in six corners and outside of them in the eight petals he shall worship these viz Malavati, Madhavi, Ratnamala, Sushila, Shashila, Parijata, Padmavati and Sundari. They are to be worshipped in the due order from the east. Then further outside he should worship Indra along with their weapons in the interstices. After the worship the Viniyoga rite is performed. 

44-45. May Radha, the beloved of Krishna, the goddess of Råsa-sports, the mistress of the cowherd lasses, the one without gunas (attributes), the beloved of Krişhņa, the primordial prakruti, the goddess of all, worshipped by all and the mother of Vairaja (vrundavana), protect and save me from all, from the east onward. 

46-47. O goddess, you are the mother of worlds. You are the eternal Maya of Vishnu and the primordial deity, the Maya of Krishna, O auspicious lady, you who are more than the vital breath unto Krishna, O, Radha, a bestower of devotion unto Krishna, obeisance unto you, the bestower of auspiciousness, 

After praying the goddess of all and eulogising duly he shall ritualistically dismiss her in the heart. 

48. He who worships Radha, the foremost of all, enjoys all pleasures here and in the end attains Goloka. 

49. O Narada, henceforth, I shall mention the procedure of worship of Mahalakshmi to you. By propitiating her, one shall have worldly pleasures and salvation. 

50. Shrim, hrim, klim, Kamalavāsini in the dative and ending with svaha is the greatest mantra1 like the wish-yielding kalpa tree. 

1. The mantra of Mahalakshmi i: Shrim hrim Kamalavasinyai svah. 

51. The sage is Nårāyana and the metre is Jagati. The deity is Mahalakshmi. The six angas are conceived by means of pairs of syllables.

After meditating thus, the devotee shall perform japa one million two hundred times. To the extent of one tenth of it he shall perform homa with the twigs of Shri (bilva) tree. He should worship her along with the angas and avaraņas in the altar with nine Shaktis. 

55. The nine shaktis are as follows: vibhūti, unnati, kanti, srishti, kirti, sannati, puşhti, ruddhi, and siddhi; these are the nine shaktis. 

56-58. After invoking them by means of the mulamantra and after conceiving the form therein the aspirant shall per form the worship of six angas in the six corners. On the right-hand side, he shall worship the elephant-faced god. To the left, he shall worship kama. He shall then worship in the eight petals in sequence viz Uma, Shri, Bharati, Durga, Dharani, Veda mata. They shall be worshipped in the quarters and in the interstices. The daughters of Jahnu and the sun (i.e., Ganga and Yamuna) should be worshipped as attempting to wash her feet. 

59. The treasures Shankha and Padma are to be worshipped as holding the chowries at the sides. Thereafter, he shall worship Varuna in the west holding up the umbrella.

61. Outside of it, he shall worship the guardians of the worlds and still outside of it, their weapons. 

For the purpose of longevity, a man shall perform homa with durva soaked in ghee. 

62. The person who performs a thousand and eight homas with gudūchi soaked in ghee and continues this for seven days lives for a hundred years. 

63-66. One shall attain long life by performing homa with gingelly seeds smeared with ghee. 

For the purpose of regaining health of the body, the devotee shall begin to repeat mantras on a Sunday and continue it for ten days. He shall perform homas with twigs of arka plant soaked in ghee. If one perpetually performs homa for a thousand and eight times with Shali rice, ere long, great fortune will certainly come about. The devotee shall perform a hundred and eight homas with Usha (?), ajaji (comimum seed) and coconut kernel mixed with ghee. Everyday his diet is to be restrict ed to milk pudding. Within a mandala (forty days) the man becomes a person like Kuvera.

The devotee shall perform a thousand and eight homas with japa (China rose) flowers mixed with the juice of betel leaves. He shall apply the resultant bhasma on his forehead. The excellent brahmin thus becomes competent 10 fascinate persons of all castes, 

69-70a O leading sage, the excellent Sadhaka who worships Lakshmi thus, attains vast wealth. Mahalakshmi becomes pleased with him. There is no doubt about this that at the end of his life he reaches the abode of Vishnu. 

70b-72. O excellent brahmin, the deity called Durga after going to Shivaloka, secured the permission of Shiva, and created the divine world which is famous as Deviloka. It is different from other worlds. Stationed there, the mother of the universe per formed austerities and observances. She pursues her different activities in the three units of time. 

73-74a. Maya (hrim), atri (da) is associated with indhikå (u) and then adorned with bindu (.) (i.e., dum), then again sargiņi (ra) is associated with it (i.e., dur) and pratişhthå (a) is joined with smruti (ga), then it is joined with Kşhudha (ya) and Jnánamruta (ai).

109b. Worship of Savitri 

O leading brahmin, henceforth, I shall recount Savitri, the beloved of Brahma. 

110-112. It is by propitiating her that Brahma created the worlds consisting of the mobile and immobile beings. Shrim, hrim, klim in the beginning and Savitri is used in the dative case. The mantra ends with svaha.1 Savitri mantra consists of eight syllables. Its sage is Brahma. Gayatri is its metre. Savitri, the mother of all gods, is the deity. The angas are to be conceived by the following mantra: Obeisance unto Brahma, obeisance unto Vishnu, obeisance unto Rudra, obeisance unto Ishvara, obeisance unto Sadashiva, obeisance unto the Atman of all. 

1.    These verses give the mantra of Savitri thus: Shrim hrim klim Savitryai svah.

The deity should be meditated upon as follows: She has the lustre and colour of molten gold and she shines in divine glory of sacred knowledge, her form is similar to a thou sand suns at the midday in summer, her face is bright with a little smile, she is bedecked in jewelled ornaments, she is clad in silken garments sanctified in fire. She is eager to show mercy to her devotees. She is the bestower of happiness, the giver of release and the giver of riches to everyone and she is auspicious. She is of the nature of the seed of the Vedas. One shall meditate upon this chaste deity as the mother of the Vedas. 

116-117. After thus meditating in the mystic diagram with three corners and shining pericarp, the scholar shall worship the goddess in the altar of the sun along with the nine shaktis viz Dipta etc. He shall worship the deity in the image conceived by the mula mantra.

He should worship Brahmi etc. with red complexion and having the above-mentioned features at the outside of it. 

123. Then, he shall worship planets and Indra and others outside of it along with their weapons. Thus, the devotee shall worship the goddess with her ten åvarana deities. 

124. He shall repeat mantra eight hundred thousand times and perform homas eight thousand times with gingelly seeds. He will liberate himself from all sins and attain longevity. 

125. He shall perform ten thousand homas with red lotuses soaked in trimadhu. There is no doubt that Mahalakshmi will favour him within six months. 

126-127a. In order to attain divine splendour, the devotee shall perform homas with the flowers of palasha or udumbara. Of what avail is much talk? This vidyā duly practised and achieved shall be, O sage, a veritable wish-yielding cow unto the aspirant. 

Henceforth, I shall mention a very mysterious and wonderful secret to you. It is named Savitri Panjara. It accords all-round protection unto men. The deity is to be meditated as follows: The firmament constitutes her tresses of hair to which the shining gold crown is attached; the clouds form her eye brows; Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva form her faces, Jupiter and Venus are the tips of her ears; the moon, the fire and the sun are her eyes. She has the nostrils, the subtle Ida and Pingala constitute the nostrils for the wind to pass; the two sandhyas (morning and evening twilights) constitute her closed lips; the elegant speech is her palate; the sun at the dusk is her jewelled neck; she is possessed of the wind as her arms; parjanya is her heart with which she is endowed. What are called Vasus constitute her sphere; the circular firmament is her belly; the planetary sphere is her navel; Prajapati constitutes her front loins; Indrani is her hips. Malaya and Meru constitute her thighs from which excellent river flows; Jahnu and Kushika are her knees; the Vishvedevas constitute her names; the earth, the serpents and the trees constitute her feet, toe, nails and hair. The planets, the signs of the zodiac, the constellations, the yoga etc are her bodily limbs; the tithis, months, seasons and fortnights indicate but a moment in regard to her. She is enveloped in a covering called sandhya (dusk) the diversity of which is caused by Maya. She is like the blazing fire of great dissolution. She has the brilliance of a crore of lightning. She is like a crore of suns, and she is cool as a crore of moons. She is stationed in the middle of the mass of nectar. She is of the nature of dense bliss and nectar. She transcends speech; un approachable through mind, she is the bestower of boons; the mother of the Vedas, she is one with the mobile and immobile worlds and is eternal. She is in union with the immutable Brahman. 

After meditating thus, the devotee shall perform nyasa rite of Savitri Panjara. 

139-140. The sage of the Panjara is So’ham, the metre is Vikruti. The great Hamsa is the deity and the great Brahman etc, are the deities, its utility and application is for the attainment of virtue, wealth, desire and salvation. He shall perform nyasa rite of the six angas by means of the mantras with the mantras for the six angas. 

141. The intelligent devotee shall perform the pervasive nyasa by means of the mula mantra thrice. He shall meditate on the deity as mentioned before with forms and attributes. 

142. May the deity with three feet who is born of Hari, having her face towards the east named Brahmastra and possessing twenty-four tattvas (principles) protect my eastern quarter. 

143. May the four-footed deity Brahmani, having the staff of Brahma, having the face towards the south, and possessing twenty-six tattvas protect my southern quarter. 

144. May the deity marked by Brahma’s head having the face towards the west, the one with five feet and with the form of fifty tattvas protect my western quarter. 

145. May the six-footed deity possessing Brahman, as the fourth, gentle, in face of the nature of Atharvangirasa and of the nature of sixty tattvas and kalas protect my northern quarter. 

146. May the nine footed deity, constituted of fifty letters and hundred syllables, Vyoma stationed in the Vedanta protect my upper region. 

May Brahma Sandhya resembling the lightening, having four arms, seated on the deer, holding bow and arrows, leather-shield and sword protect my south-eastern direction. 

148. May virgin Brahmi, Gayatri of red limbs having swan as the vehicle and holding water pot, rosary and the sacrificial ladies, sruk and sruva protect my south-western direction. 

149. May the white-complexioned youthful Savitri, having bull for her vehicle and holding skull, trident, rosary and garland protect my north-western direction. 

150. May the aged Sarasvati of dark complexion belonging to Vishnu, seated on Garuda and holding the conch, the discus and the gesture of fearlessness protect my north-eastern direction. 

151. May. the four-armed white complexioned mother of the gods having lion for her vehicle and holding gestures of boon and fearlessness and the sword and the leather shield in the arms protect my lower direction.

153. The deities presiding over mudras as the presiding deities of mantras, protect us spreading over the body from head to foot. 

154-155a. Thus, the Savitri Panjara has been mentioned truly by me to you. Every day during two sandhyas it must be recited with devotion especially at the time of japa. It must be read strenuously for worldly pleasures and liberation.
