Commentary

Hariharānanda Bhāratī’s Sanskrit commentary, translated

Having made it nectar with the dhenu gesture, he should lift, raise, the fire again with both hands; having raised it, turning the fire three times over the altar in the clockwise order, thinking of it as the seed of Śiva, as fire in the form of Śambhu's seed, the practitioner, his knee touching the ground, turning it to face himself, should set, place, it in the yoni-yantra, the triangular maṇḍala. (Covers verses 137 and 138.)
