About the numbers

Each card shows two numbers. The śloka is the verse number in Jaideva Singh's edition. The dhāraṇā is the practice's place among the 112. The two do not move in step, so each card gives both. For example, the open-sky verse is śloka 84 and dhāraṇā 61. Other books count differently.

The grid is kept on this device only. It lights each dhāraṇā you have opened. There is no streak and nothing to keep up.
