وبعد أن أقام شيفا-لينغا (Śiva-liṅga)، ظل يعبده على الدوام بالبخور والطيوب والأدهان العطرة، ممتلئاً بإيمانٍ سامٍ.
Pulastya (narration context; verse is descriptive)
Tirtha: Arbuda-liṅga (installed at Arbuda)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Inside/near the cleft, a freshly installed Śiva-liṅga on a simple pīṭha; the devotee offers incense smoke, fragrant pastes, and unguents; lamps flicker against rock walls; the mood is continuous worship.
Steady, faith-filled worship of Śiva—expressed through liṅga-pratiṣṭhā and daily pūjā—draws divine grace.
Within the Arbuda-khaṇḍa setting, the narrative points toward the Arbuda/Prabhāsa sacred landscape where Śaiva worship yields exceptional merit.
Liṅga-pratiṣṭhā followed by continual pūjā using dhūpa (incense) and gandha/anulepana (fragrant unguents).
