Adhyaya 44: Nandikesvara’s Manifestation and Abhisheka; The Rule of Namaskara in Shiva-Nama

Devanagari script

चकार सर्वं भगवान् अभिषेकं समाहितः अर्चयित्वा ततो ब्रह्मा स्वयमेवाभ्यषेचयत्

Transliteration

cakāra sarvaṃ bhagavān abhiṣekaṃ samāhitaḥ arcayitvā tato brahmā svayamevābhyaṣecayat

Translation

Sa isip na nakatuon, isinagawa ng Mapalad na Panginoon ang buong ritwal ng abhiṣeka. Pagkaraan, matapos ang wastong pagsamba, si Brahmā mismo ang nagbuhos ng pagpapabanal sa sagradong Liṅga, itinatag ang Panginoon bilang Pati—yaong nagpapalaya sa paśu (kaluluwang nakagapos) mula sa pāśa (gapós) sa pamamagitan ng tamang pagsamba.
