अर्कपुष्पेऽपि चैकस्मिञ्छिवाय विनिवेदिते । दश दत्त्वा सुवर्णानि यत्फलं तदवाप्नुयात्
arkapuṣpe'pi caikasmiñchivāya vinivedite | daśa dattvā suvarṇāni yatphalaṃ tadavāpnuyāt
શિવને એક માત્ર અર્કપુષ્પ અર્પણ કરવાથી પણ દસ સોનાં દાન કર્યાનું જે ફળ મળે, તે જ ફળ પ્રાપ્ત થાય છે.
Śiva (as Somnātha), within the Prabhāsa-kṣetra praise context
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Sureśvarī (Indrāṇī)
Scene: Close-up devotional act: a hand places a single arka flower on the dark stone liṅga; the flower glows, and ten gold pieces appear as a faint symbolic echo dissolving into light.
Right offering with devotion is valued beyond material magnitude; even one flower can carry great merit.
