Viśvāmitra (narrating)
Tirtha: Hāṭakeśvara
Type: kshetra
Listener: Pārthiva (king)
Scene: After a millennium of austerity, Śiva manifests before the ascetic, with Sūrya blazing nearby and Vṛṣeśvara (bull-associated Śiva aspect/Nandin-linked presence) attending; the devotee prostrates as divine speech begins.
Persevering tapas culminates in darśana: divine grace arrives when discipline, repentance, and devotion mature.
Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra is implicitly glorified as the stage where a millennium of penance yields Śiva’s direct appearance.
Not a prescription here; it narrates the fruit (phala) of prolonged tapas—Śiva’s darśana.
