Note Two:

Visualization of Entering of Vishnu into Oneself: visualize Vishnu is sitting on his Garuda atop one`s crown, he then transforms into a pearl of light, travels through the crown opening to descend down the central of the heart chakra. Vishnu, sitting on Garuda, gradually enlarges, until becoming the exactly the same size as one. (The practitioner and Vishnu have united into one entity. Vishnu is oneself, oneself is Vishnu. There is no difference between the two. )
