सूत उवाच । सप्तविंशतिलिंगानि यानि संति द्विजोत्तमाः । तेषां मध्येऽभवत्सिद्धिरेकस्मिन्निखिला द्विजाः
sūta uvāca | saptaviṃśatiliṃgāni yāni saṃti dvijottamāḥ | teṣāṃ madhye'bhavatsiddhirekasminnikhilā dvijāḥ
સૂતે કહ્યું—હે દ્વિજોત્તમો, અહીં સત્તાવીસ લિંગો છે. હે બ્રાહ્મણો, તેમાંના એક દ્વારા જ સંપૂર્ણ સિદ્ધિ પ્રાપ્ત થાય છે।
Sūta
Tirtha: Cluster of 27 liṅgas (name of the siddhi-granting one not given in excerpt)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Dvijottamāḥ / brāhmaṇas
Scene: Sūta addressing brāhmaṇas, gesturing toward a sacred precinct containing many liṅgas arranged in a mandala-like layout; one central liṅga is larger and radiant, indicating the siddhi-source.
Among many sacred installations, one may be singled out as especially potent—underscoring hierarchy of sanctity in sthala-māhātmya.
A set of twenty-seven liṅgas is referenced; the uniquely siddhi-giving liṅga is identified in the following verses.
No specific rite is detailed here; it introduces the liṅga set and the claim of a preeminent siddhi-giver.
