“To make the circle that suppresses the sorcery of vidyā-mantra, draw the circle—a nine-compartment circle with inner and outer sections—with liquid turmeric on two slabs of either slate or mica. As for the mantras, in the central compartment write va svā staṃbhaya staṃbhaya hā. In the inner section write va va va va va va va va. In the outer section write va oṁ va | va tā va | va re va | va tut va | va tā va | va re va | va tu va | va re va. Then conceal the two circles separately, side by side, and the sorcery of vidyā-mantra will be suppressed.”
