FAQs

Śiva is the ultimate refuge—transcendent, bliss-natured, and the yogic object of meditation—invoked especially when the world’s poisons arise.

The verse is theological praise within Kedārakhaṇḍa; it supports the Shaiva sanctity of the Kedāra milieu without naming a particular spot here.

Smaraṇa (remembrance) of Śiva and yogic contemplation are prescribed as the immediate remedy.
