यो मे लिंगस्य याम्याशां स्थित्वा मंत्रं जपिष्यति । षडक्षरं प्रदास्यामि तस्यायुष्यं सुतान्वितम्
yo me liṃgasya yāmyāśāṃ sthitvā maṃtraṃ japiṣyati | ṣaḍakṣaraṃ pradāsyāmi tasyāyuṣyaṃ sutānvitam
जो माझ्या लिंगाच्या दक्षिण दिशेस उभा राहून मंत्रजप करील, त्याला मी षडक्षर मंत्र देईन आणि पुत्रांसह दीर्घायुष्य देईन.

Scene: A devotee stands to the south of the liṅga, counting japa on a mālā; the liṅga radiates; subtle glyph-like aura suggests mantra transmission; attendants keep lamps lit.
Disciplined mantra-japa performed according to tīrtha-specific injunctions is said to yield both worldly stability (life, family) and sacred empowerment (mantra-gift).
The Nāgarakhaṇḍa liṅga-tīrtha where directional worship (standing to the south) is prescribed.
Stand in the southern direction of the liṅga and perform mantra-japa; the ṣaḍakṣara-mantra is specifically highlighted.
