Verse 54sva-dehe jagato vāpi sūkṣma-sūkṣmatarāṇi ca  tattvāni yāni nilayaṃ dhyātvānte vyajyate parā Meditating on the Principles of Reality dissolving, each more subtle than the last, in one’s own body or in the world, the Supreme Goddess manifests in the end.
Simplified Steps
Imagine (or feel) the Earth element pervading your feet, legs, and buttocks, optionally imagining a golden yellow cube encompassing your lower body (up to your pelvic floor)
Imagine the Water element pervading your pelvis, optionally imagining a silvery bowl of water coterminous with your pelvic bowl
Imagine the Fire element pervading your torso, optionally imagining a pyramid of fire centered on your heart
Imagine the Wind element pervading the region between the pit of the throat and the third eye, optionally imagining a grey-green hexagram there
Imagine Space from the third eye upward (and outward)
Dissolve Earth into Water, Water into Fire, and so on, up to Space
Let Space emanate Wind, let Wind emanate Fire, and so on, back down to Earth
