Shiva Purana — Rudra Samhita, Shloka 39
कामभस्म-प्रार्थना: रत्याः शङ्करं प्रति विनयः / Rati’s Supplication to Śaṅkara regarding Kāma’s Ashes
जय स्वभक्तसत्कामप्रदेश करुणाकर । जय सानन्दसद्रूप जय मायागुणाकृते
jaya svabhaktasatkāmapradeśa karuṇākara | jaya sānandasadrūpa jaya māyāguṇākṛte
Kemenangan bagi-Mu, Yang Maha Pengasih, yang mengurniakan hajat yang suci dan benar kepada para bhakta-Mu. Kemenangan bagi-Mu, yang hakikat sejati-Mu ialah Sat yang dipenuhi Ānanda. Kemenangan bagi-Mu, yang melalui guṇa-guṇa Māyā menzahirkan rupa dan tugas demi dunia, namun tetap Tuhan yang melampaui ikatan.

Significance: Encourages bhakti grounded in right desire (satkāma) and trust in Śiva’s compassionate bestowal; supports the Siddhānta path where anugraha cuts pāśa.

The verse supports Saguna worship by praising Shiva’s manifest, grace-giving aspect (the Lord who responds to bhakti), while also affirming his higher, blissful Sat-svarūpa—often contemplated through the Linga as the sign of the beyond-form.
Bhakti-centered japa and stuti: chant the Panchākṣarī (Om Namaḥ Śivāya) with the attitude of surrender, asking only “sat-kāma” (pure aims) and meditating on Shiva as blissful Being beyond the guṇas.
