The practice of awakening through memories and distractions :

vastuṣu smaryamāṇeṣu dṛṣṭe deśe manas tyajet |

svaśarīraṃ nirādhāraṃ kṛtvā prasarati prabhuḥ || 119 ||

"When one sees a place and is about to remember memories,

one should abandon attention (from that vision)

(and) having made one's body without support,

the Lord shall come."

kvacid vastuni vinyasya śanair dṛṣṭiṃ nivartayet |

taj jñānaṃ cittasahitaṃ devi śūnyālāyo bhavet ||120 ||

"When one pays attention to some thing,

one should remove it slowly.

Then there is awareness, accompanied with attention.

One will, o Goddess, becomme an empty receptacle."
