Meaning: Or meditate on Arham the supreme Mantra, made up of the ref (), digit and dot (*), accompanied with the Anahata and remaining in the golden lotus, pure as moon-light radiating in all directions in the space. The wise yogis should then meditate, with suspended breath, as if this pure syllable is entering the lotus like mouth, moving in the eye-brows, throbbing in the eyes, staying in the forehead, coming out from the hole of the palate, shedding nectar, competing with the moon in brightness, shining in the midst of stars, radiating in the sky and uniting the meditator with the goddess of emancipation, and perfectly formed. It is said:
प्रकारादि हकारान्तं रेफमध्यं सबिन्दुकम् । तदेव परमं तत्त्वं यो जानाति स तत्त्ववित् ॥
Meaning: Arham that begins with a (3), ends in h() and has ref ("), digit and dot (*) in the middle, is the ultimate reality. One who knows this, knows the supreme truth.
