FAQs
Trilocana means “the Three-eyed one,” a well-known epithet of Śiva, referring to his third eye of spiritual insight and cosmic power.
It indicates that after the sacrifice reaches its formal completion (samāpti), an act of worship (pūjā) is performed—suggesting a closure rite that sanctifies and seals the yajña’s merits.
It highlights honoring sacred acts with proper completion and worship, and it frames devotion as relational—uniting the devotee with the divine (here, bringing the Lord to be with his consort).
