ये पिबन्ति महादेवि श्रद्दधानाः पयः शुभम् । सोमपानेन तत्तुल्यं नात्र कार्या विचारणा
ye pibanti mahādevi śraddadhānāḥ payaḥ śubham | somapānena tattulyaṃ nātra kāryā vicāraṇā
હે મહાદેવી! જે શ્રદ્ધાથી તેના શુભ જળનું પાન કરે છે, તે સોમપાન સમાન છે; અહીં શંકા કે વિચાર કરવાની જરૂર નથી.
Śiva (deduced: address 'mahādevi')
Tirtha: Narmadā (Revā)
Type: river
Scene: Devotees cup their hands to drink Narmadā’s clear water; above, a subtle celestial Soma symbolism (moon-vessel, cool radiance) indicates equivalence; the Devī is invoked as Mahādevī.
Faith (śraddhā) unlocks the full merit of tīrtha-prasāda; sacred water is treated as divine sacrament.
Revā/Narmadā as a river-tīrtha whose water is praised as supremely purifying.
Reverently drinking the tīrtha-water with śraddhā.
