शिवदेव गिरीश महेश विभो विभवप्रद गिरिश शिवेशमृड । मृडयोडुपतिध्र जगत्त्रितयं कृतयंत्रणभक्तिविघातकृताम्
śivadeva girīśa maheśa vibho vibhavaprada giriśa śiveśamṛḍa | mṛḍayoḍupatidhra jagattritayaṃ kṛtayaṃtraṇabhaktivighātakṛtām
Ôi Śiva thiêng liêng—Giriśa, Maheśa, Vibhu, Đấng ban phú quý; ôi Giriśa, Śiveśa, Mṛḍa. Ôi Đấng đội trăng—xin làm cho ba cõi được cát tường, và diệt trừ mọi ràng buộc ngăn trở lòng bhakti.
Aṅgiras
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Audience within Kāśī-māhātmya frame
Scene: Śiva as Giriśa and Śiveśa, crescent moon on matted hair, radiating protective energy over the three worlds; dark knots/ropes symbolizing ‘restraints’ snapping as devotion rises like a flame from the devotee’s heart.
Devotion flourishes when divine grace removes inner and outer impediments; Śiva is invoked as the universal benefactor.
Kāśī is the contextual sacred field, where Śiva is approached as Viśveśvara, remover of obstacles to bhakti.
None directly; it is a prayer (stuti) seeking obstacle-removal and auspiciousness.
