Having thus worshiped the Lord in the sacrificial fire, the devotee should offer his obeisances to the Lord’s personal associates by bowing down and should then present offerings to them. He should then chant quietly the mūla-mantra of the Deity of the Lord, remembering the Absolute Truth as the Supreme Personality, Nārāyaṇa.

Translation
Having thus worshiped the Lord in the sacrificial fire, the devotee should offer his obeisances to the Lord’s personal associates by bowing down and should then present offerings to them. He should then chant quietly the mūla-mantra of the deity of the Lord, remembering Brahman as Nārāyaṇa.
Remembering Brahman whose svarūpa is Nārāyaṇa, one should chant the mūla-mantra.
Personal Guidance
Worship the Lord in the fire, then bow to the Lord's personal associates, present offerings, chant the mūla-mantra quietly, and offer the remnants. Worship has many recipients in sequence.
Reflection Questions
- Where do I leave out associates and remnants in my worship?
- What does inclusion teach about the Lord's social field?
