उत्तरीयं च संदध्याद्विना तन्निष्फलार्चनम् । भस्मत्रिपुण्ड्रधारी च ललाटे हृति चांसयोः
uttarīyaṃ ca saṃdadhyādvinā tanniṣphalārcanam | bhasmatripuṇḍradhārī ca lalāṭe hṛti cāṃsayoḥ
ຄວນນຸ່ງຜ້າຄຸມບ່າ (ອຸດຕະຣີຍະ) ດ້ວຍ; ຖ້າບໍ່ມີ ການບູຊາຈະໄຮ້ຜົນ. ຜູ້ທີ່ຖືກປະດັບດ້ວຍຕຣິປຸນດຣະຈາກຂີ້ເຖົ່າ ຄວນປະທັບໄວ້ທີ່ໜ້າຜາກ ທີ່ອົກ ແລະທີ່ບ່າທັງສອງ.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Scene: A devotee drapes an uttarīya and applies three horizontal ash lines (tripuṇḍra) on forehead, chest, and shoulders; the temple sanctum glows behind, indicating readiness for worship.
Outer discipline—proper dress and sacred marks—supports inner reverence; Śiva-worship should be done with complete ritual propriety.
No single tīrtha is named in this verse; it presents general Śaiva temple-worship protocol within the Māheśvarakhaṇḍa.
Wear an upper garment and apply tripuṇḍra with bhasma on the forehead, chest, and shoulders before worship.
