भोगानुरंजनपरः कर्मसाम्यक्षणावधि । कर्मसाम्ये स एकः स्यादनुग्रहमयो विभुः
bhogānuraṃjanaparaḥ karmasāmyakṣaṇāvadhi | karmasāmye sa ekaḥ syādanugrahamayo vibhuḥ
Ang nalulugod sa pagdanas ng mga kaluguran (bhoga) ay nananatiling nakagapos hanggang sa sandaling magpantay ang kanyang mga karma. Kapag natamo ang pagkapantay ng karma, ang Nag-iisang Panginoon na sumasaklaw sa lahat ay nagiging ganap na biyaya at ipinagkakaloob ang Kanyang pagpapala.

FAQs
The verse teaches that bondage persists while karmic forces remain operative and imbalanced; when karma ripens into equilibrium, Shiva’s anugraha (grace) becomes the decisive factor that turns the soul toward release, aligning with the Shaiva Siddhanta emphasis on Pati (Shiva) as the liberator.
Worship of the Linga (Saguna Shiva as an accessible form) is a means to purify and steady the mind, helping karmas mature toward sāmya; at that ripened stage, the devotee experiences Shiva not merely as the object of ritual but as the gracious Lord who bestows inner clarity and freedom.
Practice steady japa of the Panchakshara mantra (Om Namaḥ Śivāya) with devotion and ethical restraint; such bhakti-sādhana supports karmic purification and invites Shiva’s anugraha, especially when paired with simple Linga-pūjā and mindful detachment from bhoga.
