Preview of English translation:
2. But, indeed, the vital airs depart from those who exceed (the duration of) the Diksha. For seven days they observe it; for there are seven (outlets of) vital airs in the head, and the Diksha is the vital airs: it is by means of the vital airs he gains the Diksha, the vital airs, for him. He makes offering by dividing (each) deity into three parts; for the gods are of three orders, and of three orders are these worlds: he thus establishes himself in these worlds in prosperity and vital power.
