Sankhya System Process (As explained by Lord Kapila): (Continued..)
While fixing his mind upon the Lord's eternal form, the yogi should not see His body in entirety, but should view each limb separately. The devotee should first of all concentrate his mind upon the Lord's lotus feet, which are adorned with the marks of a thunderbolt, a goad, a banner and a lotus. The Lord's lotus feet with their splendorous ruby nails act like thunderbolts that shelter the mountain of sin stored in the mind of the meditating devotee. For this reason, one should concentrate his mind upon the lotus feet of the Lord for a long time.
The yogi should then meditate upon the activities of Lakshmidevi, the goddess of fortune, who is always very carefully massaging the Lord's legs. Next, the devotee should meditate upon Lord's thighs, which are the storehouse of all energies. Then, he should contemplate the Lord's rounded hips, which are enriched by a nice sash.
