## Reading (machine draft, verse-mapped)

**tsa-a20-v01** — There — the initiation for the perfection of refinement for those fit for knowledge, and the with-seed release-initiation for those incapable of it: once it is performed, the guru should teach the lifelong remaining course.
**tsa-a20-v10** — For in a mirror, for one gazing ceaselessly at one's own face, certainty of its nature comes swiftly. And here no sequence is chief — apart from identity-with-that.
**tsa-a20-v11** — Entered into identity with the supreme mantra, his beast-latency stain wiped away, his whole snare-net of bonds melted by the penetration of devotion's taste — whatever heart dwells in that is highest to be taken up: so say our gurus.
**tsa-a20-v12** — Having lain down upon it, the ultimate-minded flashes forth the flood of being as light — which —
**tsa-a20-v13** — Supreme-nectar-vision-ness: by her they are worshipped — the knowers of the secret.
**tsa-a20-v14** — Having prepared the ground, sprinkled in the moment with the unction of wonder-taste — with taken flowers, mentally, own-being's blossoms exuding their own perfume.
**tsa-a20-v15** — From the course of the priceless cup of my heart, brimmed with bliss's nectar — you, together with the Goddess, in the body, God's temple — I worship day and night.
**tsa-a20-v16** — Contemplating within the sense stated in the two verses, one should contemplate the wheel of deities.
**tsa-a20-v17** — Then the showing of seals, murmuring, and the offering of that.
**tsa-a20-v18** — Dismissal through oneness with the one to be awakened.
**tsa-a20-v19** — The chief food-offering one should eat oneself, or cast it all into water — for the water-born living are previously initiated, through the oblation-food: so say the scripture-knowers.
**tsa-a20-v02** — Here the remaining course is threefold — daily, occasional, and wished-for. The last belongs to the practitioner alone; it is not settled here.
**tsa-a20-v20** — But where cats, mice, dogs, and the rest are eaten, doubt is born — toward hell. Even the knower, from the wish to grace the world, should not do such a thing; or, leaving the world behind, one should abide. Thus is the altar-sacrifice.
**tsa-a20-v03** — Here what occurs regularly is the daily; identity-with-that alone is the occasional; serving it are twilight worship, daily practice, festival day, sacred thread, and the rest.
**tsa-a20-v04** — That too is daily, by the fixedness of its own time — say some.
**tsa-a20-v05** — But the occasional, even for those who abide in his teaching, is irregular — namely the coming of the guru and his circle, their festival day, the day of gaining knowledge, and the rest — say some.
**tsa-a20-v06** — Here fixed worship, twilight worship, guru worship, festival worship, and sacred thread — unfailing, all.
**tsa-a20-v07** — Occasional are the gaining of knowledge, the gaining of scripture, the coming to the house of the guru's circle, their days of birth-refinement and departure, worldly festival, exposition of scripture, beginning, middle, and end, the seeing of deities, gathering, dream command, and the gaining of release from the rule — this occasional is the cause of special worship.
**tsa-a20-v08** — Here, to the initiated disciple one should transmit by mouth-lineage alone the chief mantra — potent, its essence the flashing-forth of consciousness, unwritten. Then, to perfect identity-with-that, the disciple should practice identity at the twilights; through that door, at all times, to perfect the gaining of such refinement; and daily one should worship the Supreme Lord on the altar or on the liṅga.
**tsa-a20-v09** — Here, on an altar delightful to the heart, meditated upon like a stainless mirror — having seen one's very form, non-different from the worshippable wheel of deities, as it were mirrored in a body — one should worship with heart-delighting flowers, scents, wine, libations, food-offerings, smoke, lamps, gifts, praise, song, music, dance, and the rest; murmur; chant praise — to obtain doubt-free identity-with-that.
