करमध्ये च मे लग्नं कपालं पतितं तदा । कपालमोचनश्चासौ लिंगरूपी स्थितोऽभवत्
karamadhye ca me lagnaṃ kapālaṃ patitaṃ tadā | kapālamocanaścāsau liṃgarūpī sthito'bhavat
Alors le crâne qui était resté fixé au milieu de ma main se détacha et tomba. Ce lieu saint, nommé Kapālamocana, s’y établit sous la forme d’un liṅga.
Īśvara (Śiva)
Tirtha: Kapālamocana
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī
Scene: A divine hand held out; the skull-mark/bowl clinging to the palm suddenly drops away at the tīrtha; a radiant liṅga manifests at the spot, with pilgrims witnessing the miracle.
True expiation culminates in release (mocana) and the establishment of sacred presence; purification becomes a permanent boon for future pilgrims through the liṅga.
Kapālamocana—presented as a liṅga-form sacred spot within the Prabhāsa-kṣetra landscape.
The verse implies tīrtha-darśana and liṅga-veneration at Kapālamocana; the specific rites are not detailed in this line.
