lokanātha-sādhana

The practice of Lokeshvara, the lord of the world

    I prostrate before the protector of the universe!
    In accordance with the preliminary stage of yoga, from the syllable hrīḥ arises Lokanātha, [which is like] moonlight. He is adorned with a crown of scythe. On top of the scythe is Vajradharma, which destroys all diseases. The right hand [in the mudra] of bestowing the highest. Equal to that, the left hand holds the lotus. Really standing in a playful posture, illuminated with the light of great peace and [shows with the hand the mudra of] bestowing the supreme and holds an utpala in his hand. On the right side stands the peaceful Tara. Then Hayagriva stands on the left. They prostrate and in their hand [hold] a staff. Great and wrathful with a body of red color, adorned with robes of tiger skin. In this way the ritual becomes correct.
    When one meditates thus on Lokeshvara, one surpasses all impurities and obscurations-cloths and the chariot of the mind becomes completely filled [with qualities].
    The mantra is here:
    oṁ hrīḥ
    This is how the practice of Lokanatha is completed.
