ततः प्रविश्य तद्वारि पीत्वा स्नात्वा च शांभवम् । तल्लिंगं स्नापितं पूजा विहिता कमलैः शुभैः
tataḥ praviśya tadvāri pītvā snātvā ca śāṃbhavam | talliṃgaṃ snāpitaṃ pūjā vihitā kamalaiḥ śubhaiḥ
“Bấy giờ tôi bước vào, uống dòng nước thiêng ấy và tắm theo nghi thức Śaiva (Śāmbhava). Tôi tắm rửa Liṅga ấy và cử hành lễ thờ phụng bằng những đóa sen cát tường.”
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) narrating (deduced from Māheśvara-khaṇḍa convention)
Reverent contact with sacred water and sincere Śiva-worship—especially abhiṣeka and lotus-offering—purifies and elevates the devotee.
A Śaiva sacred spot associated with holy water and a Śivaliṅga is implied, though the exact tīrtha name is not stated in this verse.
Drinking tīrtha-water, bathing (snāna), bathing the Liṅga (abhiṣeka/snāpana), and offering lotuses in pūjā.
