स्कन्धद्वये स्थितो वह्निर्नाभिमूले प्रभञ्जनः ।
जानुदेशे क्षितिस्तोयं पादान्ते मस्तके नमः ॥१५६॥
The Fire Element resides on both the shoulders; the Air
Element at the root of the navel; the Earth Element in the
thighs; the Water Element in the lowest part of the feet; and
the Akasa Element in the forehead.
माहेयं मधुरं स्वादे कषायं जलमेव च ।
तीक्ष्णं तेजः समीरोऽम्ल आकाशं कटुकं तथा ॥१५७॥
The taste of Earth is sweet; of Water saline, of Fire bitter
of Air sour, and of ākāśa pungent,
अष्टांगुलं
वहेद्वायुरनलञ्चतुरंगुलम् ।
द्वादशांगुलं माहेयं वारुणं षोडशांगुलम् ॥१५८ ॥
The length of Svara of Air Element is eight Angulas
( fingers ); of Fire Element four fingers; of Earth Element twe-
lve fingers; and that of Water Element sixteen fingers.
ऊर्ध्व मृत्युरधः शान्तिस्तिर्यगुच्चाटनं तथा ।
मध्ये स्तम्भं विजानीयान्नभः सर्वत्रमध्यमम् ॥१५९॥

If the Svara flows in the upward direction it is indicative
of death; if it flows in the downward direction it indicates tra-
nquility; if it flows in an oblique manner then one should do
the acts of repulsing others (Uccaṭana); and if it flows in the
middle, one should do the obstructing acts ( Stambhana ). The
effect of Akasa Element is moderate in all kinds of works.
पृथिव्यां स्थिरकर्माणि चरकर्माणि वारुणे ।
तेजसि क्रूरकर्माणि मारणोच्चाटनेऽनिले ॥१६० ॥
When the Earth Element is dominant then one should
do stationary works; when Water Element is dominant
roving works can be done successfully; when the Fire Element
is dominant cruel works are successful and when Air Element
is dominant the acts like Uccațana (repulsing others) and
Māraņa ( acts of killing others ) are successful.
व्योम्नि किंचिन्न कर्तव्यमभ्यसे द्योगसेवनम् ।
शून्यता सर्वकार्येषु नात्र कार्या विचारणा ॥१६१॥
स्कन्धद्वये स्थितो वह्निर्नाभिमूले प्रभञ्जनः ।
