Or, the designing of the pedestal is now told in a different way. The pedestal formed of all adhvas has
four feet constituted by the four yugas. For this lotus, pruthvi tattva is the bulbous root. The tattvas
from jala to kaala constitute the stem of the lotus charmingly furnished with the tiny thorns of fifty
different kinds of dispositions of the buddhi tattva. For this lotus, maya tattva is the big knot(appearing
at the top of the stem). Suddhavidya tattva serves as the upper level of the great lotus-seat. It shines forth
with the eight petals identified with the Vidyesvaras and with the filaments identified with the Sakti. In this
way, the priest should contemplate the lotus-seat. The same lotus-seat should be conceived as manifested of
matruka-letters.

Dharma, Jnana, Vairagya and Aisvarya are constituted of four letters belonging to neuter gender. Ananta
is constituted of ‘am’ and the petals of the great lotus-seat , with ‘au’. The Guru, who is the formost among
knowers of the scriptures should ideate the pericarp, the innermost part, with the last letter of the vowels.
The nine vowels from ‘o’ to ‘a’, leaving out the four letters of the neuter gender, are to be identified with
