तेजस्विषु यथा भानुर्दृश्येषु च यथा शशी । तथा लिंगेषु सर्वेषु परं लिंगं त्रिलोचनम्
tejasviṣu yathā bhānurdṛśyeṣu ca yathā śaśī | tathā liṃgeṣu sarveṣu paraṃ liṃgaṃ trilocanam
Như mặt trời giữa muôn vật rực sáng, và như mặt trăng giữa các cảnh tượng—cũng vậy, trong mọi liṅga, Liṅga tối thượng chính là Trilocana.

The text establishes a devotional hierarchy: Trilocana is singled out as the foremost focus for Śaiva reverence in Kāśī.
Trilocana-liṅga in Kāśī, praised as supreme among liṅgas.
