It highlights that even the devas rely on Hara’s grace: when guided by right understanding (here, through Viṣṇu’s counsel), they return to Śiva’s ārādhana, affirming bhakti and surrender as the decisive means to restoration and protection.
The verse explicitly points to ārādhana of Hara—devotional propitiation of Saguna Śiva—commonly expressed in Purāṇic practice through Liṅga-pūjā, abhiṣeka, and mantra-japa as accessible forms for divine grace.
The takeaway is to resume disciplined Śiva-ārādhana: daily mantra-japa (especially the Pañcākṣarī “Om Namaḥ Śivāya”), along with simple Liṅga worship/abhiṣeka; if following Śaiva markers, one may add bhasma (tripuṇḍra) and rudrākṣa as supportive observances.
