Suruci lo apartó, y con el corazón complacido sentó a su propio hijo en su regazo. Oh príncipes de los dos veces nacidos, ella—honrada por su hermosura—era reverenciada por los más eminentes.

FAQs
Though not a direct linga-vidhi verse, it highlights how attachment and honour in worldly life (pasha) condition the pashu (individual soul); such narrative contrasts later point the aspirant toward inner purification and single-pointed devotion to Pati, Lord Shiva, which is central to Linga-oriented worship.
Indirectly: it depicts the play of social honour and personal affection that binds the jiva; Shiva-tattva in Shaiva Siddhanta is the liberating Pati beyond such partialities, the refuge that dissolves pasha and establishes the soul in clarity and grace (anugraha).
No explicit puja or Pashupata-yoga technique is stated; the implied takeaway is purification (inner and outer) and vigilance toward attachment—foundational disciplines that mature into regulated Shiva-puja and Pashupata-style self-restraint.
