अपि मासं वसेत्तत्र यदि कोपविवर्जितः । तदा मुक्तिमवाप्नोति स्वर्गभाक्पञ्चरात्रतः
api māsaṃ vasettatra yadi kopavivarjitaḥ | tadā muktimavāpnoti svargabhākpañcarātrataḥ
જો કોઈ ક્રોધવિહિન થઈ ત્યાં એક મહિનો પણ વસે, તો તે મુક્તિ પામે છે; અને પાંચ રાત્રિમાં સ્વર્ગનો ભાગી બને છે.

Tirtha: Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra (implied)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim residing in the holy city: calm face, hands in añjali, refusing provocation; a calendar-like motif shows five nights leading to a celestial ascent, and a month culminating in a luminous liberation scene near the liṅga.
The tīrtha’s fruit is maximized by inner discipline: angerlessness in a holy kṣetra yields heavenly merit and even liberation.
The ‘there’ refers to the Hāṭakeśvara kṣetra described in Adhyāya 206.
A vrata-like discipline is implied: reside in the kṣetra for five nights (or up to a month) while avoiding anger.
