tāntrikāḥ paricaryāyāṁkevalasya śriyaḥ pateḥaṅgopāṅgāyudhākalpaṁkalpayanti yathā ca yaiḥ

Translation:

All good fortune to you! Please explain to us, who are very eager to learn, the process of kriyā-yoga practiced through regulated worship of the transcendental Lord, the husband of the goddess of fortune. Please also explain how the Lord’s devotees conceive of His limbs, associates, weapons and ornaments in terms of particular material representations. By expertly worshiping the Supreme Lord, a mortal can attain immortality.
