Note! The following is not a translation of the above verse, but merely an arbitrary extract of the English text.
The method of lighting the moon art of the conchshell. Then, on the day of Lord Viṣṇu, the moon-knowing Lord wrote about His orbit with His hands, embraced Him with His arms, and pressed His arms tightly against Him. On the date of Cupid’s birth, one should kiss the cheeks, neck and throat of the Lord.
