[159] Performing a *kamguna*-infused *parana*, followed by a *pacaula*, then a *sarvakamguna*-infused *parana*, followed by a fast, then a *sarvakamguna*-infused *parana*, followed by a *bela*, then a *sarvakamguna*-infused *parana*, followed by a *tela*, then a *sarvakamguna*-infused *parana*.
In this way, the first practice of this *laghu* (small, insignificant) *sarvatobhadra* penance-action is completed in three months and ten days. Following the *sutra*, with proper *samyagriti* (method), Arya Mahakrishna performed a fast in the second practice and a *vigaya*-free *parana*. Just as four practices are described in the *Ratnavali* penance, so too are there four practices in this one. The *parana* should be understood in the same way. The first practice takes a total of one hundred days, with twenty-five days of *parana* and seventy-five days of fasting. The combined duration of all four practices is one year, one month, and ten days.
**Discussion:** The word *khuddaga* in " *khuddaga* *savvaobhai* *padimam*" refers to something small in comparison to something great. *Sarvatobhadra* penance is of two types: one great and one small. This is the small one. The word *khuddaga* is used to indicate this. When the numbers are even, not odd, and the same from whichever direction they are counted, it is called *sarvatobhadra*. In this, numbers from one to five are given, and no matter which direction you count from, the total is always fifteen. Since the number is the same when counting from one to five in all directions, it is called *sarvatobhadra*. This is clear from the presented diagram.
