Commentary
Hariharānanda Bhāratī’s Sanskrit commentary, translated
"Prokta" and the rest. After that, in the same way joining the root mantra at the end of the three bījas told, and at its end uttering "dadhnā tvāṁ snāpayāmy adya bhavatāpaharo bhava" (with curd I bathe you today; be the remover of the pains of worldly existence), the doer should bathe the deity with curd.
