FAQs
Yes. The verse assigns sacred names (Pāṭalā, Śivā, Jayā) to specific body regions (feet and ankles), which is characteristic of nyāsa-like devotional recitation.
Here they function as divine designations linked to the feet (Pāṭalā) and ankles (Jayā), used for reverential salutation within a devotional formula rather than as narrative characters.
It emphasizes bhakti through nāma-saṃkīrtana (uttering the divine name “Śivā”) and reverential salutation to Devī and Śiva, expressing sanctity even in specific bodily loci (feet/ankles).
