It is becoming more and more clear in your vision with closed eyes.
For example:- I imagine that Iam looking at Durga Devi who is riding on a Lion. [described in "RKSoniPrarthana.blogspot.com] She is smiling and looking at me and seemingly saying that "Don't worry, I am with you and will save you from all the evils , pains, enemies , and troubles" . And the vast aura around her is throwing energy into me , which is making my mind and my body more and more strong.

Now feel by saying in your mind [unuttered] that " Now the cosmic energy has entered into my body and is active to solve my physical and mental problems.

Now do "Jap" i.e. repeated uttering/saying of "Mantra" the name of God and prayer. Jap can be done either audible or inaudible ,at your own choice, like " Om Shri Durgaayai Namaha". You may remain in this state till you like.
Step - 6 - Kayabandhan
