सर्वपापहरं पुण्यं यत्र तत्क्षेत्रमुत्तमम् । हाटकेश्वरदेवस्य विख्यातं भुवनत्रये
sarvapāpaharaṃ puṇyaṃ yatra tatkṣetramuttamam | hāṭakeśvaradevasya vikhyātaṃ bhuvanatraye
ત્યાં તે ઉત્તમ ક્ષેત્ર છે—પવિત્ર અને સર્વપાપહર—જે ભગવાન હાટકેશ્વરદેવના ક્ષેત્ર તરીકે ત્રિભુવનમાં વિખ્યાત છે.
Sūta (continuing narration)
Tirtha: Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A radiant Śiva-kṣetra revealed: a liṅga shrine of Hāṭakeśvara with a luminous aura, pilgrims pausing in reverence; cosmic suggestion of ‘three worlds’ through layered skies/realms.
A divinized landscape (kṣetra) becomes a vehicle of grace: contact with a Śaiva holy site is praised as capable of dissolving accumulated sin.
Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra, the famed sacred domain of Lord Hāṭakeśvara.
No specific rite is stated here; the verse proclaims the kṣetra’s inherent sin-removing potency.
