Et le sacrifice, l’offrande, et le renoncement aux fruits des rites que tu m’as consacrés; et le fait d’avoir établi ici ce liṅga portant mon nom, « Candreśvara » : ces actes me sont très chers.
Śiva (Maheśāna)
Tirtha: Candreśvara
Type: temple
Scene: Śiva acknowledges two acts: (1) offering sacrificial rites and relinquishing their fruits to him, and (2) establishing a liṅga named Candreśvara; the liṅga is central, with devotee presenting offerings.
Dedication of rites and their fruits to Śiva, along with establishing a liṅga, becomes a powerful act of devotion in Kāśī.
The Candreśvara-liṅga shrine in Kāśī, introduced as a named manifestation of Śiva.
