स्पर्शमात्रे मनुष्याणां रुद्रवासोऽभिजायते । तेन दानफलं सर्वं कुरुक्षेत्रादिकं च यत्
sparśamātre manuṣyāṇāṃ rudravāso'bhijāyate | tena dānaphalaṃ sarvaṃ kurukṣetrādikaṃ ca yat
اسے محض چھونے سے ہی انسانوں کو رُدر کے دھام میں سکونت نصیب ہوتی ہے؛ اور اسی سے دان کا پورا پھل—کُرُکشیتر وغیرہ کے پُنّیہ سمیت—مل جاتا ہے۔
Deductive (Revā Khaṇḍa narrative voice)
Tirtha: Sparśa-liṅga
Type: temple
Listener: Rājā
Scene: Pilgrims reach out to touch the liṅga; a radiant pathway or aura rises upward symbolizing Rudra-loka; surrounding motifs show Kurukṣetra and other tīrthas fading into the liṅga’s single-point brilliance.
Even a simple act done at a potent sacred locus—here, a touch—can yield vast results when the site is divinely empowered.
The Sparśa-liṅga tirtha of the Revā (Narmadā) region, presented as granting extraordinary merit through contact.
The prescription is ‘sparśa’—touching the sacred liṅga—as a direct means to obtain great punya.
