FAQs

Pilgrimage and worship at a Śaiva shrine can destroy sins; Kārttika magnifies the fruit of devotion.

Muṇḍinā—an āyatana of Śiva (Śūlin), praised as sin-destroying and auspicious.

Implied: undertake worship/pilgrimage especially in Kārttika; the verse highlights time-specific potency rather than a detailed rite.
