## Reading (machine draft, verse-mapped)

**tsa-a20-v53** — There, exposition performed for the devoted, seated low, with speech, mind, and body restrained, becomes fruitful. First, on the ground smeared with perfumes and the rest, having drawn or resolved: a lotus-base, four-cornered, a lotus-triad, in the middle of the lotus Vāgīśī, on left and right Gaṇapati and the guru — one should worship; on the base-lotus, the wish-granting deity of exposition.
**tsa-a20-v54** — Then, having sated the wheel with the common offering-vessel rite, one should expound: the text of aphorism, sentence, and chapter, uncontradicted before and after — first joining the position rightly, and rightly refuting; proving the provandum, revealing the drift — one should expound to the chapter's end, no more; even there, at each section's end, sating and worship — until the exposition is complete.
**tsa-a20-v55** — Then too, having worshipped, having dismissed the knowledge-seat, having smeared, one should cast it into the deep.
**tsa-a20-v58** — Though for one established in the knowledge of reality there is no expiation and the rest at all, yet to grace those who partake of release through conduct alone, one should display the course of conduct.
**tsa-a20-v59** — But the truth-unknowing one, whose enjoyment and release hang on conduct alone — if the rule is transgressed and, not performing expiation, he remains — for a hundred years he becomes an eater of raw flesh: thus the expiation rule is to be stated. There, in woman-slaying there is no expiation; elsewhere, having known strength and weakness, one should repeat the unbroken Goddess Mālinī from one time onward up to three hundred thousand, until doubt falls away. At its end, special worship; even there, the wheel-rite — for it everywhere remains.
**tsa-a20-v60** — Thus the rule-expiation rule.
**tsa-a20-v62** — At the close of all rites, when the rite has been gathered in, on the next day one should perform guru-worship — for before, as a limb of the rite he is gratified, but not chiefly: thus, not performing it chiefly, bound by the bond of office, one remains bound.
**tsa-a20-v63** — Thus one should perform it in every way.
**tsa-a20-v64** — There, having drawn a svāstika maṇḍala, there having given a golden seat, there having worshipped the entire path-course, having established that seat thereby, having performed worship to him, sating, meal, gift, and self — thus having offered, having begged the food-leavings, having bowed, having tasted oneself, one should perform wheel-worship.
