The verse expresses the seeker’s aspiration that the full merit of sacred practice culminate in becoming a worthy receptacle of Shiva’s auspicious grace—true saubhagya—rather than mere worldly gain.
In Shaiva Siddhanta, worship of Saguna Shiva (such as the Linga) purifies the pashu (individual soul) and makes one fit (pātra) to receive Pati’s anugraha (grace), which is the real ‘complete fruit’ of worship.
The implied takeaway is steady Shiva-upāsanā with bhakti—especially japa of the Panchakshara (Om Namaḥ Śivāya) and disciplined vrata—so that one becomes inwardly qualified to receive auspiciousness through Shiva’s grace.
