The Greatness of the Śālagrāma Sacred Region
अथात्र मुंचते प्राणान्मम कर्मपरायणः ॥ लोकपालान्परित्यज्य मम लोकं स गच्छति ॥
athātra muñcate prāṇān mama karmaparāyaṇaḥ | lokapālān parityajya mama lokaṃ sa gacchati ||
फिर अगर कोई वहाँ मर भी जाए, जो मेरा काम करता रहता है, वो सब देवता को छोड़ के मेरे पास आता है। मेरे लिए काम करना वो सीधा मेरे लोक में ले जाता hai।
