महारुद्रजपासक्तः सुत्रामाथ त्रिलोचनम् । ददर्श लिंगमध्यस्थं स्वभासा दीपितांबरम्
mahārudrajapāsaktaḥ sutrāmātha trilocanam | dadarśa liṃgamadhyasthaṃ svabhāsā dīpitāṃbaram
Nalubog sa japa ng Mahārudra na mantra, nakita ni Indra ang Tatlong‑Mata na Panginoon, na nahayag sa loob ng liṅga, at ang Kanyang liwanag ay nagpasinag sa lahat ng dako.
Skanda (deduced; Kāśīkhaṇḍa narration typically Skanda to Agastya)
Tirtha: Dharmeśvara liṅga (Dharmapīṭha)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Indra, absorbed in Mahārudra japa, beholds Trilocana within the liṅga; Śiva’s own radiance lights the quarters, making the shrine glow like a pillar of light.
Mantra-japa ripens into direct vision (darśana) of Śiva, who reveals Himself as self-luminous within the liṅga.
The Dharmaśvara liṅga context within Kāśī’s sacred geography (as developed in this adhyāya).
Mahārudra-mantra japa as a focused sādhana leading to Śiva’s darśana.
