तं दृष्ट्वा मानवः सम्यगश्वमेधफलं लभेत्
taṃ dṛṣṭvā mānavaḥ samyagaśvamedhaphalaṃ labhet
Celui qui le contemple comme il se doit obtient le fruit du sacrifice Aśvamedha, le grand rite du cheval.
Śiva (Īśvara)
Tirtha: Maṃkīśvara
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (Pārvatī)
Scene: A pilgrim stands before the Maṃkīśvara liṅga with folded hands; above, a symbolic vignette of an Aśvamedha horse and sacrificial altar dissolves into light, indicating equivalence of merit.
Even darśana (reverent sight) at a powerful tīrtha can equal the merit of grand Vedic sacrifices.

Darśana—seeing the liṅga with proper devotional attentiveness (samyak).
