Description of the chapter [驳耻谤耻艣颈峁补濒补办峁峁嘺]: Sut墨k峁ａ箛a asks Agastya who was the first teacher of and the first initiate into the six-syllable mantra on this earth. The order was this: Brahm膩 to Visi峁ａ弓ha to Manu to Vedavy膩sa, the last-named of whom spread this teaching on earth to his many disciples. One of these disciples, namely 艢aunaka, was instructed first about the requisites of a good Guru and of a good disciple, and told that only such are fit to receive the mantra. There follows an esoteric discussion describing how even parts of the mantra may be repeated to great benefit鈥攅.g., 鈥淩膩m,鈥� 鈥淩膩ma,鈥� etc.鈥攁nd how by adding certain syllables one can produce other valuable mantras. [...] Although initiation into the mantra is open to persons of all castes, the instruction differs for each group. Nonetheless, as part of this initiation in all cases, a pot must be placed ritually inside a yantra-design.
