अपरं च वरं दद्यां नर्मदे दर्शनाघहे । भवत्या स्थापितं लिंगं नर्मदेश्वरसंजकम्
aparaṃ ca varaṃ dadyāṃ narmade darśanāghahe | bhavatyā sthāpitaṃ liṃgaṃ narmadeśvarasaṃjakam
Und ich gewähre dir noch einen weiteren Segen, o Narmadā, deren Anblick Sünde vernichtet: Der von dir errichtete Liṅga soll „Narmadeśvara“ heißen.
Maheśvara (Śiva)
Tirtha: Narmadeśvara (liṅga) / Revā (Narmadā)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (addressed as ‘Narmadā’)
Scene: Revā as a river-goddess establishes a Śiva-liṅga; a divine lord grants a boon and names it ‘Narmadeśvara’; attendants hold kalaśas, bilva leaves, and lamps.
Establishing and honoring Śiva-liṅgas at sacred places anchors divine presence for devotees.
The Narmadā tīrtha and the specific liṅga titled Narmadeśvara are glorified.
Liṅga-sthāpana (establishing a liṅga) is referenced as an auspicious, merit-bearing act.
