Mantras to obtain Woman.

Vdsudeva said:

1. there is a Gandharva VUvavasu 1 the lord of girls.

I am getting him for thy sake. After begetting a girl unto Viivdvasu. Acquisition of girls by the recitation of this mantra.

Now I shall describe the Night-mare ( Kalaratri ).

2. 0/w obeisance unto thee, Goddess jtkfakarni (Beajreared), having four arms, hair tied up, three-eyed one.

Kdlardtri feeding on fat and blood of men, giver of death to so-and so whom god of death has approached. Hum

Phaf. Kill, kill;

burn, bum; digest, digest flesh and blood. Svahd unto thee, O jtkfapatni (wife of the constellation ‘Great Bear’). Neither the day of the lunar fortnight nor star nor fasting is being stipulated.

3. The devotee in all fury shall smear blood over his hands, lift the phallic emblem and strike the unbaked clay pot. Orh obeisance! all round are these Yantras (mechanical devices) such as Jambkani (the yawning), Mohani (the charming) and SarvaJatruvid& rini (tearer of all enemies); protect me — so and so protect me — from all fear and harassments, Svdhd unto thee. When Sukra is destroyed after the japa has been performed twice, I shall explain further.
