Matsya tantra: Just as a fish hatches its eggs by just
glancing them only for a while, the guru imparts the full knowledge by his
gestures and behaviour and leaves them to improve themselves.
Kurma
tantra: Just as a tortoise leaves its egg on the earth to develop
on its own and keeps thinking of them while in water, the guru trains his
shishya in all the aspects and keeps distance from him but at the same time
letting him know that he is thinking a great deal about him.
Bhramara
tantra: As the wasp acts towords the worm as if is stinging the
worm constantly so that in the process of constant touch, the worm becomes
a wasp, guru who keeps a constant watch on his shisya enabling the latter
to think and acquire the knowledge and develop his own abilities and qualities.
Marjara tantra: As the cat protects its kitten till
they become mature, the guru keeps a constant watch till the shisya acquires
full knowledge and maturity.
Markata tantra: As
the monkey protects and feeds its babies as and when it feels like, through
the babies always cling to the mother, the guru teaches the shishya as and
when he likes although is constantly with the guru.
