चंद्रेश्वरं समभ्यर्च्य यद्यन्यत्रापि संस्थितः । अघौघपटलीं भित्त्वा सोमलोकमवाप्स्यति
caṃdreśvaraṃ samabhyarcya yadyanyatrāpi saṃsthitaḥ | aghaughapaṭalīṃ bhittvā somalokamavāpsyati
Dẫu ở nơi khác, nhưng nếu thành kính phụng thờ Candreśvara đúng pháp, người ấy phá tan khối tội lỗi dày đặc và đạt đến Somaloka, cõi của Soma (Nguyệt Thần).
Skanda
Tirtha: Candreśvara (Kāśī)
Type: temple
Scene: A devotee far from Kāśī faces east in a small home shrine, visualizing Candreśvara; simultaneously, the Candreśvara temple in Kāśī glows. A dark ‘cloud’ of sins is split by a beam of moonlight, opening a path to a silver Soma-loka above.
Devotion to Candreśvara is presented as powerful enough to destroy accumulated sin and elevate the devotee to a higher celestial state.
Candreśvara in the Kāśī tradition is implied; the verse also stresses that his worship bears fruit even for those not physically in Kāśī.
Proper worship (arcana) of Candreśvara, with the promised fruit of sin-destruction and Soma-loka attainment.
