## Chapter Forty-Three
**423**
In the *Ekādi-Pūpavāsa* (fasting on the first day of the lunar fortnight) and the *Pañcānta* (fasting on the fifth day of the lunar fortnight), the *aṅga* (limbs) are arranged in order. At the beginning and end of the *aṅga*, the remaining *aṅga* are born from the *aṅga* itself. ||5||
This *catur-aśra* (square) *prastāra* (arrangement) is conceived as having five *aṅga*. All around, the *upavāsa* (fasts) are counted as fifteen. ||53||
These are multiplied by five, the number being seventy-five. Multiplied by five, the five *pārāṇā* (breaking of the fast) are twenty-five. ||54||
This is called the *Sarvatobhadra* (all-auspicious) *upavāsa* method. It bestows the *nirvāṇa* (liberation) and the *abhyudaya* (progress) of *udaya* (rising). ||55||
In the *Pañcādi* (beginning with five) and *Navānta* (ending with nine), the *Madottare-vasantaka* (spring-like) method is followed. There, the *upavāsa* are thirty-five in number. ||56||
In the *Saptānta* (ending with seven) and *Ekapūrva* (beginning with one), the *prastāra* has seven *aṅga*. At the beginning and end of the *aṅga*, the *sarva-bhaṅga* (all-breaking) are arranged in order. ||57||
There are twenty-eight *iṣṭa* (desirable) in all, and seven *pārāṇā*. This is the *Mahā-sarvatobhadra* (great all-auspicious), the means of achieving the *Sarvatobhadra*. ||58||
Where the *rūpānta* (transformations) begin with five, and the *dvayādya* (beginning with two) are *catur-antaka* (ending with four), and the *vyādya* (beginning with three) are *rūpānta* (transformations), that is known as the *Triloka-sāra* (essence of the three worlds) method. ||59||
