“Next, one should draw a double circle And append the syllable phaṭ. One should write the target’s name And put it into conjoined skull cups.

“This should be wrapped with a blue thread And buried in a charnel ground at midday.

“While focused on being Yamāri, One should place the target before themselves. There are two targets, weapons in hand, Mounted on a horse and a buffalo.

“One should imagine that, on both sides, Are emanated hordes of wrathful beings. With a mind steeped in wrath, One should recite the mantra while visualizing The two, powerful and fierce, in protracted battle.

oṁ hrīḥ ṣṭrīḥ vikṛtānana hūṁ hūṁ phaṭ phaṭ | devadatta yajñādatte vidveṣāya hūṁ phaṭ |

This is the rite for sowing discord taught by the Bhagavat.

“Following the same rite as before, One should draw a double circle, Augment it with the syllables hūṁ and phaṭ, And put it inside conjoined skull cups.

“It should be wrapped with a black cord And buried in an ancestor’s grove. Maintaining the practice of Yamāri, One should imagine the target before oneself.

“Visualize a black wind maṇḍala, Born from yaṁ and shaped as a bow, With a blue camel on it. On it is the evildoer, facing south, Being beaten by a furious horde. Even a buddha would find this hard to reverse.

oṁ hrīḥ ṣṭrīḥ vikṛtānana hūṁ hūṁ phaṭ phaṭ devadattam ucchāṭaya hūṁ phaṭ |

This is the expelling rite taught by the Bhagavat.

“The fierce yogin, facing south, Should draw a double circle on charnel ground cloth Using a decoction of goat blood, corpse ash, Poison, salt, black mustard, and datura, Following the ritual sequence.

“To kill, one should place the target on Yama’s body; To sow dissent, on a horse and a buffalo; To expel, standing on a camel; To pacify, on a moon disk; To enrich, on a yellow moon disk; To enthrall, in a woman’s heart; To summon, mounted on a goat; To paralyze, in a ring of mountains; And to summon, on a śarabha lion. The other rites are defined in a similar manner.

“One should draw with bovine bezoar, Lac, or Kashmiri saffron, as specified, On birch bark in order to enthrall. If one’s mind is focused on virtue, There is no doubt it will be successful.

“The circles should be placed in conjoined bowls. After midday, one should write with a raven feather On a cremation pyre or conjoined skull cups. While focused on being Yamāri, One should recite the mantra oṁ hrīḥ ṣṭrīḥ…, With the target of suppression facing south.

“For pacifying, the syllable ya at the edge is effaced, As well as both the ni syllables. Next, efface the syllable ya in the center, And the remaining syllables as desired.

“One should do ten thousand preparatory recitations, Which results in successful ritual action. This is to be done with vajra wisdom While focused on being Yamāri.

“There will be continuous strife In a house where this terrifying circle remains After it has been drawn, With all the syllables still written.”
