तस्मादनंतरं विष्णुः श्रद्धापूतेन चेतसा । तथान्ये विबुधाः सर्वे शक्राद्याः श्रद्धयान्विताः
tasmādanaṃtaraṃ viṣṇuḥ śraddhāpūtena cetasā | tathānye vibudhāḥ sarve śakrādyāḥ śraddhayānvitāḥ
Aussitôt après, Viṣṇu — l’esprit purifié par la foi — rendit le culte ; de même tous les autres dieux, à commencer par Śakra (Indra), emplis de śraddhā.

Type: kshetra
Scene: Viṣṇu steps forward after Brahmā’s worship, offering with a serene, faith-purified expression; Indra and other devas follow in orderly devotion before the liṅga.
Śraddhā (reverent faith) purifies the mind and makes worship fruitful, regardless of status.
The same Pātāla-linked liṅga-sthāna being revered by the gods in this chapter’s tīrtha-māhātmya.
Faith-filled worship (implicit pūjā) by Viṣṇu and the devas is the model practice.
