यः पवित्रं पवित्राणामादिदेवो महेश्वरः । पुनाति दर्शनादेव तस्मै तीर्थात्मने नमः
yaḥ pavitraṃ pavitrāṇāmādidevo maheśvaraḥ | punāti darśanādeva tasmai tīrthātmane namaḥ
Ele é a pureza de todos os purificadores, o Deus primordial, Maheśvara; que santifica apenas ao ser visto: ao Senhor cuja própria essência é um tīrtha, eu me prostro.
Candra
Tirtha: Somnātha at Prabhāsa
Type: kshetra
Listener: Pilgrimage-audience (ṛṣis in frame)
Scene: Candra or a pilgrim beholds Śiva at Somnātha; the act of seeing emits purifying light washing over the devotee and the surrounding tīrtha crowd.
Divine darśana itself is purificatory; the Lord is the source of holiness behind all holy things.
Prabhāsa Kṣetra, implicitly framed as a place where Śiva’s presence functions as the supreme tīrtha.
The verse highlights darśana (seeing the Lord) as a direct means of purification.
