"YOGA KUNDILINT-UPANISHAD mathana (churning) well. Some intelligent men attain Siddhi even without mathana. One who is versed in Khechari Mantra accomplishes it without mathana. By doing the japa (in reciting the mantra) and mathana, one reaps the fruits soon. By connection a wire made of gold, silver, or iron with the nostrils by means of a thread soaked in milk, one should restrain his breath in his heart, and seated in a convenient posture with his eyes concentrated between his eyebrows he should perform mathana slowly. In six months the state of mathana becomes natural like sleep in children, And it is not advisable to do mathana always. It should be done (once) only in every month. A Yogi should not revolve his tongue in the path. After doing this for twelve years, Siddhi is surely obtained. He sees the whole universe in his body as not being different from Atma. This path of UrdhwaKundilini (the Kundilini going higher up), oh Chief of Kings, leads to the Macrocosm. Thus ends the second Chapter.
CHAPTER III. Melanamantra-(the mystic mantra Melana). (hreem), (bham), (sam), (sham),
(ppham), (sam), and (ksham). The lotus born (Brahma) said
Oh Sankara (or Siva) (among) New moon, Pratipad (the first day of the lunar fortnight) and full moon, which is spoken of as its (mantra's) sign?
