O minamahal, walang sinumang gaṇa—mula kay Nandīśvara at iba pa—ang pumigil sa kanya; sapagkat sila’y dalisay at tapat sa pagsasakatuparan ng utos ni Mahādeva, kaya kumilos sila ayon sa Kanyang kautusan.

FAQs
It highlights the Shaiva principle that Shiva (Pati) is the supreme governor; even His closest attendants act with śauca (inner purity) by faithfully executing His ājñā, showing that divine order—not personal preference—guides sacred action.
Saguna Shiva is worshipped as the personal Lord who issues compassionate commands for the world’s harmony; honoring His śāsana is itself a form of devotion, just as Linga worship trains the devotee to align will and conduct with Shiva’s presence and ordinance.
Practice śauca and ājñā-anusaraṇa: begin worship with purification (bhasma/tripundra if part of one’s tradition), then japa of the Panchākṣarī “Om Namaḥ Śivāya” while mentally offering one’s actions as obedience to Mahādeva’s will.
