ଦୁଃଖ, ଶୋକ ଓ ଭୟରେ ପୀଡିତ ଏବଂ କ୍ଲେଶ-ନିର୍ବାଣ ଆକାଂକ୍ଷୀମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ—ପ୍ରଦୋଷେ ପାର୍ବତୀଶ (ଶିବ)ଙ୍କ ପୂଜା ମଙ୍ଗଳର ଆଶ୍ରୟ ଓ ଆୟତନ।
Narrator (contextual Purāṇic voice; not explicit in the snippet)
Scene: A devotee burdened by sorrow and fear approaches a Śiva-liṅga at dusk; as pradoṣa pūjā proceeds, the scene brightens—lamp flames steady, the devotee’s posture relaxes—symbolizing kleśa-nirvāṇa and maṅgala.
Pradoṣa worship of Śiva is a direct remedy for mental afflictions and a gateway to auspicious well-being.
No site is specified; the verse glorifies pradoṣa-kāla worship of Pārvatīśa universally.
