Rudra-Śiva: Names, Two Natures, and the Logic of Epithets (रुद्रनाम-बहुरूपत्व-प्रकरणम्)
पज्चयज्ञविशुद्धात्मा सत्यवागनसूयक: । दाता ब्राह्मणसत्कर्ता सुसंसृष्टनिवेशन:
pañcayajñaviśuddhātmā satyavāg anasūyakaḥ | dātā brāhmaṇasatkartā susaṁsṛṣṭaniveśanaḥ ||
Wika ni Mahādeva: “Yaong ang kalooban ay nalinis ng limang dakilang paghahandog (pañca-yajña); yaong nagsasalita ng katotohanan at hindi mapanlait; yaong mapagbigay at nagbibigay-galang sa mga Brahmana; at yaong ang tahanan ay maayos at nagkakaisa—ang gayong tao ang sagisag ng asal at disiplina na pinupuri ng dharma.”
