Salam bakti kepada-Mu, wahai kediaman kemuliaan yang suci tanpa noda, yang dipuji lewat kidung-kidung pilihan yang dinyanyikan Brahmā dan para dewa, para resi, serta Kinnara, dan direnungkan dengan hati yang murni. Terpujilah kaki padma-Mu yang indah, layak disembah, berhias mahkota padma, perhiasan, dan untaian bunga para makhluk surgawi.

Type: stotra
Offering: pushpa
It presents Shiva as Pati—the supreme Lord whose glory is intrinsically pure and realized through both praise (stotra) and inner contemplation (śuci-ciṃtana), culminating in surrender at His lotus-feet.
Though it praises Shiva’s lotus-feet in personal (saguṇa) devotion, the focus is on His kīrtti-dhāma—His stainless divine majesty—supporting Linga-worship where the devotee approaches the transcendent through a sacred, worship-worthy form.
Practice śuci-ciṃtana—pure-minded meditation on Shiva’s glory—along with devotional recitation of hymns; mentally place offerings at His lotus-feet as an inner pūjā, ideally accompanied by japa of the Panchakshara (Om Namaḥ Śivāya).
