nose;with round eyes and tongue darting out like snake; it is adorned with the snake-ornament and its
head is adorned with skull; it is with locks of matted hair looking like the fiery flames and its tuft is
bound with serpent. The west face(Sadyojata) is with a pleasant look and it is beautified with charming
nose and forehead; it is with three eyes and adorning crown; beautified with ear rings, it is with auspicious
appearance. The north face(Vamadeva) is surrounded with rows of hair locks appearing like the flight of
large balck bees; adorned with gold ornaments; its forehead is beautified with a round mark of kumkuma
(tilaka); it is bright and effulgent like a pure mirror; its forehead appears with curls of hair as if bedecked
with ring-shaped ornament; it is with charming and attractive body. The upper face looking above(Isana),
which is at the top, appears highly formidable; this face is adorned with ear rings and with three eyes. It is

the Guru should worship the form of Sadasiva.

The Guru should do the mantra-nyasa for the vidya-deha of Sadasiva in the same way as this nyasa was
done to his own body earlier. Having conceived the vidya-deha constitutes of the mantras related to
Sakti, he should invoke the presence of the formless Siva in that Sakti-related body. Lord Siva is the
Primal and Ultimate cause; absolutely pure; eternal; ever-existing Reality; He is of the nature of pure
consciousness, bliss and happiness; he is pervading over all the tattvas; immeasurable and incomparable;
