[Colophon:] Thus in the primordial great Purāṇa, the Āgneya, the eighty-eighth chapter, called "The Completion of the Nirvāṇa Initiation." || Chapter 89. [Heading:] Now the eighty-ninth chapter: the exposition of the initiation by the single principle. The Lord said: Now the initiation pertaining to a single principle is taught, because of its brevity. One should perform the binding of the cord and the rest, in accordance with the rule, by one's own self.
