न दुर्लभं न दुष्प्रापं न चासाध्यं महात्मनाम् । शिवभक्तिकृतां पुंसां त्रिलोक्यामिति निश्चितम्
na durlabhaṃ na duṣprāpaṃ na cāsādhyaṃ mahātmanām | śivabhaktikṛtāṃ puṃsāṃ trilokyāmiti niścitam
Với bậc đại tâm, chẳng có gì là hiếm, chẳng có gì khó đạt, cũng chẳng có gì bất khả. Đối với người đã vun bồi lòng sùng kính Śiva, điều ấy chắc thật khắp ba cõi.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), deduced for Māheśvara-khaṇḍa narration
Scene: A steadfast Śiva-bhakta stands fearless before the three worlds symbolized as celestial, earthly, and nether realms, with Śiva’s presence behind—signifying that nothing is unattainable for the devoted.
Śiva-bhakti transforms spiritual capacity: for the devoted, obstacles lose their force and attainments become accessible.
No particular tīrtha is mentioned; the verse universalizes the efficacy of Śiva-devotion.
The prescription is cultivation of Śiva-bhakti (devotion), encompassing worship, remembrance, and disciplined living.
