वसन्त-प्रभावः तथा काम-उद्दीपन-वर्णनम् | Spring’s Influence and the Arousal of Kāma
तदेवाकृष्य तच्चापं रुच्यर्थं शूलधारिणः । द्रुतं पुष्पशरं तस्मै स्मरोऽमुंचत्सुसंयतः
tadevākṛṣya taccāpaṃ rucyarthaṃ śūladhāriṇaḥ | drutaṃ puṣpaśaraṃ tasmai smaro'muṃcatsusaṃyataḥ
ເມື່ອດຶງຄັນທະນູນັ້ນແລ້ວ ແລະປາດຖະນາຈະປຸກຄວາມໃຄ່ໃນຜູ້ຖືສາມງ່າມ (ພຣະສິວະ), ສະມະຣະ (ກາມ) ຜູ້ຄວບຄຸມຕົນໄດ້ດີ ໄດ້ຍິງລູກສອນດອກໄມ້ໃສ່ພຣະອົງຢ່າງວ່ອງໄວ.
Suta Goswami (narrating the episode of Kāma aiming at Lord Shiva)
Tattva Level: pasha
Shiva Form: Mahādeva
It contrasts kāma (desire) with Śiva’s supreme inner sovereignty: even when desire is deliberately provoked, the Lord remains the Pati (master) beyond mental agitation, teaching the aspirant that mokṣa requires steadiness and dispassion.
The verse highlights Śiva as the Śūladhārī—an accessible Saguna form for devotion—yet inwardly untouched by desire; Linga-worship similarly trains the devotee to see the Lord as present and gracious while transcending the guṇas and passions.
Practice desire-discipline through japa of the Pañcākṣarī (“Om Namaḥ Śivāya”) with steady breath and mind; on Mahāśivarātri, combine fasting and night-long japa to weaken kāma and strengthen vairāgya and bhakti.
