Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 94

Devanagari script

यस्य प्रसादं प्रतिलभ्य संतो वांछंति नैंद्रं पदमुज्ज्वलं वा । निस्तीर्णकर्मार्गलकालचक्राश्चरंत्यभीताः स शिवो गतिर्नः

Transliteration

yasya prasādaṃ pratilabhya saṃto vāṃchaṃti naiṃdraṃ padamujjvalaṃ vā | nistīrṇakarmārgalakālacakrāścaraṃtyabhītāḥ sa śivo gatirnaḥ

Translation

അവന്റെ പ്രസാദം ലഭിച്ച സന്മാർ ഇന്ദ്രന്റെ ദീപ്ത പദവും ആഗ്രഹിക്കുകയില്ല; കർമബന്ധങ്ങളുടെ തടസ്സവും കാലചക്രവും കടന്ന് അവർ നിർഭയമായി സഞ്ചരിക്കുന്നു—ആ ശിവനാണ് ഞങ്ങളുടെ ഗതി.

FAQs

Śiva’s grace grants liberation beyond karma and time, making even heavenly attainments seem insignificant.

No specific location is mentioned; the verse glorifies the transformative power of Śiva’s prasāda.

None explicitly; the implied practice is devotion that seeks Śiva’s grace rather than worldly or heavenly rewards.
