ततः प्रसन्नो भगवान्विश्वेशो विश्वभावनः । आविर्भूय ततो लिंगान्महसां राशिरब्रवीत्
tataḥ prasanno bhagavānviśveśo viśvabhāvanaḥ | āvirbhūya tato liṃgānmahasāṃ rāśirabravīt
پھر بھگوان وِشوِیشور، کائنات کے پالنے والے، مہربان ہوئے۔ اُس لِنگ سے نور کے انبار کی طرح ظاہر ہو کر انہوں نے کلام فرمایا۔
Śiva (Viśveśvara)
Tirtha: Viśveśvara (Kāśī)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and other ṛṣis (typical frame)
Scene: Within the sanctum, the Viśveśvara-liṅga suddenly blazes; a column of light condenses into a radiant Śiva-form, speaking with calm authority as the devotee stands in awe.
Sincere devotion and praise invite divine grace; in Kāśī, Viśveśvara readily reveals Himself to the devotee.
Kāśī, centered on Viśveśvara (Viśvanātha) and His sacred Liṅga.
No explicit rite is stated here; the emphasis is on darśana of the Liṅga and the fruit of stuti (hymnic praise).
