Sūta said:: The devotee shall meditate on Rudra, the lord who is stationed within who is embellished by his own Śakti who, for the sake of creation, is stationed in a series of eight[11] different forms and who is stationed in the heart by compressing the fire. With the mind contemplating the fire stationed in the heart he shall perform five offerings. He shall drink pure water silently once (in the ritualistic way) in the squatting position. He shall utter “Prāṇāya Svāhā”. This is the first offering. The second offering is for Apāna, the third for Vyāna, the fourth for Udāna and the fifth for Samāna. After offering these severally with the utterance of Svāhā, the devotee shall partake of the remaining offering as he pleases. He shall drink water once again and perform the rite of Ācamana. After that he shall touch the heart.
