कामदाहोत्तरवृत्तान्तः / Aftermath of Kāma’s Burning
Pārvatī’s Fear and Himavān’s Consolation
तस्मात्त्वं सुतपोयुक्ता चिरमाराधयेश्वरम् । तपसा संस्कृतां रुद्रस्स द्वितीयां करिष्यति
tasmāttvaṃ sutapoyuktā ciramārādhayeśvaram | tapasā saṃskṛtāṃ rudrassa dvitīyāṃ kariṣyati
پس تم نیک تپسیا سے یکت ہو کر طویل عرصہ تک ایشور کی آرادھنا کرو۔ تپس سے سنسکرت اور پاکیزہ ہونے پر رُدر تمہیں اپنی دوسری (دھرم پتنی) بنائیں گے۔

The verse teaches that steadfast devotion expressed as tapas purifies the seeker and makes one fit for Shiva’s grace; attainment is shown as the fruit of inner refinement rather than mere desire.
“Worship the Lord for a long time” points to sustained saguna-upasana—commonly done through Shiva-linga worship—where disciplined practice matures into divine acceptance and blessing.
Long-term tapas-based worship: regular japa of the Panchakshara (Om Namah Shivaya), meditation on Rudra, and observances like vrata (including Mahashivratri-style night vigil) to cultivate purity and steadfastness.
