Verse 40.

Similarly contemplate on the void at the commencement and at the ending of any letter. You will enter the great Void.

To enable his commentary on this scripture to endure down through the ages, Swami Lakshmanjoo left it in two other forms:

(i) a series of videos gracing each verse, which over a few years, John Hughes of the Lakshmanjoo Academy recorded, and

(ii) Swami Lakshmanjoo's textual embodiment of the tapes, The Manual for Self-Realization: 112 Meditations of the Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra (edited by John Hughes).

Both are treasures! In each, Swamiji comments on the scripture while responding to questions from his students. Swamiji emphasizes that the video version transmits his teaching with a higher level of fidelity.
