स्थण्डिलस्य फलान्याहुर्यानानि शयनानि च
sthaṇḍilasya phalāny āhur yānāni śayanāni ca
মহেশ্বর বললেন—স্থণ্ডিল-ব্রতের (নগ্ন ভূমিতে শয়ন) নিজস্ব ফল আছে—যেমন যানবাহন ও শয্যা।

Educational Q&A
Austerity (tapas) is portrayed as ethically meaningful self-restraint whose results are said to manifest as appropriate rewards; here, the hardship of sleeping on bare ground is linked to the attainment of comforts like conveyances and beds, illustrating the doctrine of फल (fruits of action/observance).
Maheshvara is enumerating the fruits attributed to specific ascetic practices; this line states the traditional claim that the sthaṇḍila observance yields rewards such as vehicles and beds.
