FAQs

Compassion leads one to sacred action; pilgrimage and entering a siddhi-giving kṣetra are portrayed as dharmic responses to suffering.

Hāṭakeśvara kṣetra, explicitly praised as siddhi-pradāyaka (bestower of accomplishment).

Implicitly, going to the kṣetra for sādhana; explicit rites begin in the next verse.
