दक्षयज्ञे सत्या अपमानबोधः — Satī Encounters Disrespect at Dakṣa’s Sacrifice
सर्वे वेदाश्च संभूताः सांगाश्शास्त्राणि वाग्यतः । योसौ वेदांतगश्शम्भुः कैश्चिज्ज्ञातुं न पार्यते

De Lui, en vérité, sont issus tous les Veda, avec leurs auxiliaires, ainsi que les śāstra nés de la Parole sacrée. Et pourtant, ce Śambhu—but et accomplissement du Vedānta—ne peut être pleinement connu par certains esprits limités.

FAQs
It declares Śiva as the source of revelation (Vedas and śāstras) and also as the final purport of Vedānta—yet ultimately transcendent, so He is realized not merely by scholarship but by grace, purity, and devotion.
Since the supreme Śambhu is beyond complete conceptual knowing, the Purāṇa supports approaching Him through accessible forms—especially Liṅga worship—where Saguna worship becomes a doorway to realizing the Nirguṇa, transcendent Śiva.
The takeaway is to complement scriptural study with Shaiva sādhanā—japa of the Pañcākṣarī (Om Namaḥ Śivāya) and reverent Liṅga-pūjā—so knowledge matures into direct spiritual realization.
