चाण्डालीसद्गतिवर्णनम् (Cāṇḍālī-sadgati-varṇanam) — “Account of the Cāṇḍālī’s Attainment of a Good Destiny”
सा भर्तारमनुप्राप्य किंचित्कालं शुभव्रता । रेमे तेन द्विजश्रेष्ठा नवयौवनशालिनी
sā bhartāramanuprāpya kiṃcitkālaṃ śubhavratā | reme tena dvijaśreṣṭhā navayauvanaśālinī
Nang makapiling ang kanyang asawa, ang babaeng may mapalad na panata ay namuhay na masaya kasama niya sa loob ng ilang panahon. O pinakamainam sa mga dalawang-ulit na isinilang, siya’y nagalak kasama niya, nagniningning sa sariwang sigla ng bagong kabataan.

It affirms that dharmic conduct (śubha-vrata) sanctifies even ordinary household life; harmony with one’s rightful partner becomes a supportive ground for devotion and inner steadiness on the Shaiva path.
While not directly naming Linga worship, the verse reflects the Shiva Purana theme that Saguna Shiva’s grace supports dharma in all āśramas; a vow-filled life in the home can be aligned with regular Linga-pūjā and remembrance of Shiva.
The implied practice is maintaining śubha-vrata—daily purity, truthful living, and steady devotion—supported by simple Shiva upāsanā such as japa of the Panchakshara (Om Namaḥ Śivāya) and regular worship according to one’s capacity.
