(a). – PARTHIVI.



The Prithivi-Tattva has the colour of erpiment (yellow), the letter (la) is its secret symbol or seed, its form is four-sided, and Brahma, its presiding deity. Place this Tatva in the heart, and fix by Kumbhaki the Prana-Vayus and the Chitta there for the period of five ghatikas (2 ½ hours). This is called Adhodharana. By this, one conquers the Earth, and no earthy-elements can injure him: and it causes steadiness.
