人はクマーरेーシュヴァラへの奉仕によって、必ず(至上の果)を得る。ここに住し、梵行を守って清浄となった苦行者も、必ずそれを成就する。
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) to the sages
Tirtha: Kumāreśvara
Type: kshetra
Listener: The addressed ‘son’/interlocutor
Scene: A tapasvī with matted hair sits near the Kumāreśvara shrine, keeping vigil with a water pot and rosary; the temple rises behind, with a clean courtyard and a sense of disciplined stillness.
Service to the deity at a holy site, supported by purity and self-restraint, leads to assured spiritual attainment.
Kumāreśvara-tīrtha, explicitly through the phrase “kumāreśvarasevayā” and “atra” (here).
Sevā (service) to Kumāreśvara and disciplined conduct: brahmacarya (celibacy) and śauca (purity) while residing at the tīrtha.
