अर्कपुष्पेऽपि चैकस्मिञ्छिवाय विनिवेदिते । दश दत्त्वा सुवर्णानि यत्फलं तदवाप्नुयात्
arkapuṣpe'pi caikasmiñchivāya vinivedite | daśa dattvā suvarṇāni yatphalaṃ tadavāpnuyāt
ଶିବଙ୍କୁ ଗୋଟିଏ ଅର୍କପୁଷ୍ପ ମାତ୍ର ନିବେଦନ କଲେ ମଧ୍ୟ, ଦଶଟି ସୁବର୍ଣ୍ଣ ଦାନର ଯେ ଫଳ, ସେହି ଫଳ ଲଭ୍ୟ ହୁଏ।
Śiva (as Somnātha), within the Prabhāsa-kṣetra praise context
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Sureśvarī (Indrāṇī)
Scene: Close-up devotional act: a hand places a single arka flower on the dark stone liṅga; the flower glows, and ten gold pieces appear as a faint symbolic echo dissolving into light.
Right offering with devotion is valued beyond material magnitude; even one flower can carry great merit.
Somnātha at Prabhāsakṣetra, where flower-offerings are praised as exceptionally fruitful.
Vinivedana/arpana of a single arka flower to Śiva, compared to donating ten gold pieces.
