विततेऽत्र जगत्यखिलेऽघहरं हर तोषणमेव परं गुणवन् । गुणहीनमहीन महावलयं प्रलयांतकमीश नतोस्मि ततः
vitate'tra jagatyakhile'ghaharaṃ hara toṣaṇameva paraṃ guṇavan | guṇahīnamahīna mahāvalayaṃ pralayāṃtakamīśa natosmi tataḥ
Dans ce vaste monde, ô Hara, le bien suprême des vertueux est de Te plaire, Toi qui effaces tout péché. Ô Seigneur, Tu n’es point diminué par l’absence de qualités ; Tu es le grand cercle qui enveloppe tout, le terme de la dissolution. C’est pourquoi je me prosterne devant Toi.
Aṅgiras
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Audience within Kāśī-māhātmya frame
Scene: Śiva as a vast circular enclosure (mahā-valaya) containing galaxies, serene and beyond attributes; beneath, the devotee bows. In the distance, pralaya imagery—oceans rising—yet Śiva remains calm, signifying the end of dissolution.
The highest dharma is to please Śiva; He removes sin and transcends limiting qualities, guiding beings beyond dissolution.
Kāśī is the implied sacred landscape where pleasing Viśveśvara is taught as the supreme path.
No specific rite; the teaching is devotional—toṣaṇa (propitiating/pleasing) Śiva through worship and praise.
