Rồi, sau khi suy niệm, Đấng Thế Tôn Janārdana—bậc chủ tể của ba mươi vị thiên—lại nói với tất cả chư thần ấy, dẫn dắt họ hướng về nơi nương tựa cao thượng: Pati vượt ngoài mọi dây trói của pāśa.

It frames a pivotal “turning point” where the devas are prepared for further instruction—implying that true resolution comes by seeking the supreme refuge associated with the Linga (Pati), not merely by deva-level power.
Though Janārdana speaks, the verse sets up the Shaiva Siddhānta orientation: devas themselves require guidance toward the transcendent Pati, indicating Shiva-tattva as the ultimate lordship beyond limited agencies and bonds (pāśa).
No specific rite is named in this line; it functions as a narrative prelude to disciplined approach—typical of Pāśupata orientation—where reflection, right counsel, and turning to Pati precede puja-vidhi or yogic observance.
