ṣaḍ-bhuja-kurukullā-sādhana

The Practice of Six-Armed Kurukulla

    I prostrate before Kurukulla!
     First, the practitioner [should] sit on a good seat. With rays of light from the seed in one's own heart, [one should] invoke the Blessed Ones, the Enlightened Ones, and the bodhisattvas. [Having invited them,] make offerings, take refuge, and so forth.
    Then imagine [the phenomena] as empty. When you bless with the mantra, the disc of the moon appears from the syllable aṁ. Imagine [on it] the syllable raṁ together with a garland of rays of light. When it is perfect, gaze upon the Blessed One, who performs the teachings, [as appearing from it]. She sits completely cross-legged in the vajra [pose] on a seat of an eight-petaled red lotus and the Sun. With six hands. The first two hands on the right and left [form] the mudra of the Conqueror of the Three Worlds. The second on the right and left hold an iron hook and a red utpala. The remaining two hands hold an arrow and a bow stretched from the top of the ear. Red clothes are thrown over her. The head is adorned with five Tathagatas. 
    Meditate perfectly on the red syllable raṁ on the disc of the moon on the stamens of the red utpala in the heart of the one for whom the practice is performed. [He] abides on the mandala of the wind. The iron hook touches his heart and captures it. Having captured it, it enters the heart, and the one for whom the practice is performed, by means of an arrow with a red utpala tip, is captured again and again. [Imagining this,] repeat the mantra. This is the mantra for this:
    oṁ kurukulle hrīḥ <name>- let him submit to me! - hoḥ svāhā
    Then, having subjugated, imagining the one for whom the practice is being performed, look at how he falls at your feet and urge him [to action]. In this way, anyone can subjugate even Indra.
     Thus ends the practice of the six-armed one, who acts in this way.
