Cosmic Measures and the Arrangement of the Heavenly Spheres
द्विलक्षयोजनं जीवादूर्ध्वं सौरिर्व्यवस्थितः । एते सप्तग्रहाः प्रोक्तास्स्वस्वराशिव्यवस्थिता
dvilakṣayojanaṃ jīvādūrdhvaṃ saurirvyavasthitaḥ | ete saptagrahāḥ proktāssvasvarāśivyavasthitā
જીવ (બૃહસ્પતિ) થી બે લાખ યોજન ઉપર સૌરી (શનિ) સુસ્થિત છે. આ સાત ગ્રહો કહેવાયા છે, દરેક પોતપોતાની રાશિમાં સ્થિત છે.

It frames the cosmos as an ordered system governed by divine law (niyati), reminding the seeker that karmic experience unfolds within a structured universe under the higher sovereignty of Pati (Lord Shiva).
By describing planetary order, the text implicitly points beyond graha-influences to the supreme Lord who transcends and regulates them; Linga-worship centers the devotee in Shiva as the ultimate refuge beyond worldly determinants.
Rather than graha-fear, Shaiva practice emphasizes steady japa of the Panchakshara ("Om Namaḥ Śivāya") and devotion to Shiva as the stabilizing remedy for karmic fluctuations indicated by planetary movements.
