He should keep within the abode of the lotus of his heart, the deity named Visva who is the cause of the birth of the Universe. He should remember the Atman of all living beings—that which is stationed beyond darkness, the Atman that is the support of all the brilliance, the unchanging bliss, that which is beyond Pradhana and Purusa, Siva (stationed in the) cavity of the sky, Isvara of the form of Brahman, present within all beings. He should meditate on the lord devoid of beginning, middle and the end, the abode of the qualities such as bliss, etc.
