Due to the excellent effect of the above mentioned mystical formula, the mind is immediately delighted, the damaging nature of the sins is removed and the lamp of knowledge begins to shine.
Taking from the Vidyapravada (a chapter from the twelfth canonical work called Dristivada) the wise and intelligent monks like Vajrasvami and others thought the circle of the Siddhas (Siddhacakra) to be the seed of emancipation, and a water bearing cloud capable of quelling the fire of continued re-births. This circle of the Siddhas should always be learned from the guru and meditated upon for the destruction of Karma.
