Lorsque Tripurāntaka arriva avec ses gaṇas et les sept brahmarṣi, la montagne d’élite parut aussitôt frémir d’allégresse, l’esprit ravi. Alors la montagne, avec tous les gaṇeśvara, rendit un culte au Seigneur puissant aux trois yeux, en offrant des fruits divins, de l’eau pure, ainsi que des racines, des tubercules et autres semblables.

FAQs
Bhakti is shown as available through simple, pure offerings (water, fruits, roots), emphasizing sincerity and purity over extravagance; even “nature” (the mountain) models reverent responsiveness to the divine.
This is best classified as dharma/ācāra (ritual devotion) and tīrtha-māhātmya-style glorification; it supplements the Purāṇic aims beyond the five strict lakṣaṇas.
The mountain’s ‘horripilation’ personifies sacred landscape as spiritually sentient; Śiva’s arrival with gaṇas and seven seers frames a cosmic liturgy where geography, sages, and divine attendants converge in a single act of worship.
