After performing snāna and other anus..thānas of the morning such as

sandhyāvandana,

1. First you have to choose the specific pādukāsahasra śloka appropriate to the
benefit you are seeking.

2. Then you should do prān

. āyāma and center your mind on the japa procedure.

3. Then you must recite the saṅkalpa (intention) prescribed in the relevant page.

4. Then you should recite the śloka

Ûûp{¨|/ p¶=N{Zd}a}m{Ú> N{ø_}m¢ÁN{N¶ztm¥ Á

p¶b}=_}T}m{Úp{m¾Ú p¶¨ ztðÔc{Ð_}= ztb} zv¬b¢ Á Á

and meditate gratefully for a while on the gracious author of śrı̄ pādukāsa-
hasram, śrı̄nigamānta mahādeśikan.

5. Then, you have to perform silent japa of the śloka given in that page either
1008 or at least 108 times without making any mistake.

6. During the japa, you must keep your mind entirely on the divyaman
. i pādukās
of śrı̄ raṅganātha, not allowing it to wander anywhere.

7. If this japa is carried on in this manner for a man

.d. ala (40 or 48 days), you
are sure to realize your desire. Even if you feel you have not so realized,
you must continue the japa daily for as long as it takes for the realization,
in proper manner, without feeling discouraged, doubtful or frustrated. When
the japa is over, you have to give it a proper conclusion with the śloka
