are the presiding Lords in the outer enclosure. In the arrangement of 1008 kalasas, 8 Vidyesvars are

recital of 1000 names enumerated in the hymn. Thus, the forms of Siva as indicated by the 1000 names

कूट्राक्षरादि संयुक्तं चतुर्थ्यन्त समन्वितम्।
स्वाहान्तं वा नमस्कारप्रान्तं प्रणवपूर्वकम्॥ २६८
पठित्वा पूजयेदीशं शिवनामाथ केवलम्।

While worshipping the presiding Lords, the name of each Lord should be recited as ending with the fourth
case and joined with pranava(Om) and the concerned seed-letters in the beginning and with either ‘svaha’
or ‘namah’ at the end. Reciting the mantra-name in this way, the Guru should perform the worship of
each Deity. Or, the names of Siva alone may be recited for all the kalasas.
