The left hand holds a newly severed head, with blood and tears flowing. The other hand holds a vessel filled with blood, depicting the form of asuras (a type of supernatural being) such as Vinayaka (the elephant-headed deity). Below, draw the Lumbini deity, wearing newly flayed elephant skin. At each of the four corners of the mandala, draw a vajra. At the east gate of the mandala, draw Mahabhairava (the Great Terrifying Deity), along with a vajra and a mudra-jata (a hand gesture and hair arrangement). At the south gate, draw Mahavajra (the Great Vajra), holding a battle-axe, intimidating and roaring at Vinayaka; this is the Vajra General Deity. At the west gate, draw a lotus flower, with Ketaridharana Nanduti in the center, holding a torch. At the north gate, draw Mahavajra Sikharananana, which means the attendant of the Great Vajra Peak. It should be drawn according to the above description. Then, according to one's ability, prepare various offerings and practice according to this method.
