A person who receives the white mustard seed, [over which the Mantrin] has recited the mantra seven times, and who always keeps it on his head, he is freed of all faults. [...] Since all Rak峁sas run away and are killed, then O Devi, I call [white mustard seeds] 谤补办峁驳丑苍补. They spread on Earth and in all battles between demons and the chiefs of gods鈥�.
