One should visualize (Carcikā) as very thin (and old), her face brilliant and frightening with her fierce gaze. She is (dark) like black lightning (kṛṣṇajīmūta) and is engaged in devouring the triple world. She has one face and three eyes and two arms and is adorned with a corpse. She is mounted on a buffalo and leather made of human skin is (under her) buttock. (Her) garland is made of human entrails and (she is) adorned with snakes”.
