Vijñāna Bhairava (विज्ञान भैरव)
किंचिदङ्गं विभिद्यादौ तीक्ष्णसूच्यादिना ततः ।

tatraiva cetanāṃ yuktvā bhairave nirmalā gatiḥ
The line
Having split some part of the body at the start by a sharp needle and the rest, then having joined awareness there itself, the spotless going is in Bhairava (भैरव).
नेपालीमा
सुरुमा कुनै अङ्ग तीक्ष्ण सियो आदिले चिर्दा, त्यहीँ चेतना जोड्दा भैरवमा निर्मल गति हुन्छ।
Where it sits
