सदा च लिंगपूजायां मम भक्तिरनुत्तमा । भव भूयाद्भवहर जरामरणहारिणी
sadā ca liṃgapūjāyāṃ mama bhaktiranuttamā | bhava bhūyādbhavahara jarāmaraṇahāriṇī
Và nguyện lòng bhakti của con trong việc thờ phụng Liṅga luôn vô thượng. Ôi Bhava, ôi Đấng diệt trừ bhava (vòng sinh hữu), xin cho bhakti ấy tăng trưởng—bhakti phá tan già nua và tử vong.

Tirtha: Kāśī (Viśveśvara liṅga)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Sages/devotees
Scene: A devotee performs liṅga-pūjā with bilva leaves and abhiṣeka; Śiva is invoked as Bhava-hara, with symbolic imagery of broken chains, fading wrinkles, and a calm deathless light.
Supreme bhakti expressed through liṅga-pūjā is presented as the force that lifts one beyond saṃsāra, fear, and mortality.
Kāśī’s Śaiva sacrality is the background—liṅga-worship in Kāśī is repeatedly celebrated in the Kāśī-khaṇḍa.
Liṅga-pūjā (worship of Śiva’s liṅga) is the explicit practice highlighted.
