vicitrajanmakoṭīnāṃ smṛtirnotra parisphuret | etattapasviracitaliṃgapūjā vilokanāt
یہاں ہماری بے شمار اور گوناگوں پیدائشوں کی یاد ابھر نہیں رہی—کیونکہ ہم نے اُس تپسوی کے قائم کردہ لِنگ کی پوجا کا دیدار کر لیا ہے۔
Birds (continuing their reflection before Śiva)
Tirtha: Tapasvi-racita Liṅga (unnamed in verse) within Kāśī
Type: temple
Listener: Internal audience
Scene: An ascetic (tapasvin) performs or has established liṅga worship; birds watch, and a subtle aura indicates the calming of karmic memories—like ripples settling on water.
Seeing and honoring Liṅga-worship—especially that founded by tapas—can quiet the burdensome impressions of many births and turn the mind toward purification.
The verse points to a sacred Liṅga-worship context within Kāśī; while unnamed here, it aligns with Kāśī’s wider reputation for Liṅga-darśana and liberation-oriented merit.
Liṅga-pūjā (worship of Śiva’s Liṅga) and its darśana (beholding) are indicated as spiritually transformative.
