Shiva’s Wedding Procession to Kailasa and the Marriage of Girija (Kali)
स्थीयतां विस्तृते रम्ये गिरिप्रस्थे समे शुभे शिलासु पद्मवार्णासु श्लक्ष्णासु च मृदुष्वपि

សូមស្នាក់នៅលើជម្រាលភ្នំដ៏ទូលាយ ស្រស់ស្អាត ស្មើ និងជាមង្គលនេះ លើថ្មដែលមានពណ៌ដូចផ្កាឈូក រលោង ហើយទន់ផងដែរ។

The verse presents an ideal sacred habitat: level, auspicious, and gentle—suggesting that spiritual life thrives where the environment supports steadiness (samatā), purity (śubhatā), and non-harshness (mṛdutā), paralleling inner qualities cultivated by sādhana.
It functions as tīrtha/kshetra-prasaṃśā (praise and description of a holy locale), commonly embedded within Purāṇic narration; it is ancillary to the fivefold topics but aligns most with Ācāra-dharma and kṣetra-māhātmya sections.
‘Lotus-colored, smooth, soft rocks’ evoke the lotus symbolism of purity and spiritual unfolding; the ‘level plateau’ suggests equanimity and stability—qualities of a mind fit for tapas and devotion.
