कथं मत्स्वामिनो वीर्यममोघं ते महेश्वर । मोघं यातं च किं किंवा शिशुर्जातश्च कुत्रचित्
kathaṃ matsvāmino vīryamamoghaṃ te maheśvara | moghaṃ yātaṃ ca kiṃ kiṃvā śiśurjātaśca kutracit
Wahai Mahēśvara, bagaimana mungkin daya yang tidak pernah gagal milik Tuanku menjadi sia-sia? Atau adakah ia entah bagaimana telah dilemahkan? Atau adakah seorang anak telah lahir di suatu tempat?

The verse affirms that Śiva’s śakti and vīrya are amogha (never futile); if results are not seen immediately, it indicates a hidden divine arrangement rather than any failure of the Lord’s power.
Addressing Śiva as Mahēśvara highlights Saguna Śiva—personal, responsive, and sovereign—whose purposeful will (icchā-śakti) never becomes vain, a core devotional assurance behind Linga worship.
A practical takeaway is steadfast japa of the Pañcākṣarī mantra (Om Namaḥ Śivāya) with faith that Śiva’s grace is never wasted, even when outcomes appear delayed.
