Muñjavān on Himavat: Maheśvara’s abode, Śiva-stuti, and sacrificial gold
Chapter 8
त्र्यक्ष्णे पृष्णो दन््तभिदे वामनाय शिवाय च । याम्यायाव्यक्तरूपाय सद्वृत्ते शड़कराय च
tryakṣṇe pṛśno dantabhide vāmanāya śivāya ca | yāmyāyāvyaktarūpāya sadvṛtte śaṅkarāya ca
قال سَمْفَرْتَا: «(خضوعٌ) لِلسَّيِّدِ ذِي العُيُونِ الثَّلَاث؛ وَلِذِي اللَّوْنِ المُرَقَّط؛ وَلِكَاسِرِ سِنِّ الشَّيْطَان؛ وَلِفَامَنَا؛ وَلِشِيفَا. (خضوعٌ) لِرَبِّ جِهَةِ يَمَا؛ وَلِمَنْ صُورَتُهُ غَيْرُ مُتَجَلِّيَة؛ وَلِذِي السِّيرَةِ القَوِيمَة؛ وَلِشَنْكَرَا أَيْضًا».

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that dharma and ethical steadiness (sadvṛtta) are supported by devotion: the divine is honored through many names that point to both concrete deeds (mythic epithets) and the transcendent, unmanifest reality (avyaktarūpa).
Saṁvarta is reciting a reverential invocation, stringing together epithets and divine names as a stuti-like passage, situating the ongoing discourse within a sacred, dharma-oriented frame.
