भोजितं तेन विश्वं स्याल्लिंगस्यैवं फलं महत् । किमत्र बहुनोक्तेन स्वल्पं वा यदि व बहु
bhojitaṃ tena viśvaṃ syālliṃgasyaivaṃ phalaṃ mahat | kimatra bahunoktena svalpaṃ vā yadi va bahu
Nhờ người ấy, vũ trụ như được nuôi dưỡng; đó là quả báo lớn lao của việc thờ liṅga. Cần gì nói nhiều nữa—dâng ít hay dâng nhiều cũng vậy.
Lomaharṣaṇa Sūta (deduced: Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narrative frame)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A humble devotee offers a small bowl of cooked rice before the liṅga; the text’s idea is visualized as subtle rays spreading outward, symbolically feeding all beings.
Sincere devotion to Śiva is praised beyond the measure of the offering; even small acts carry vast spiritual impact.
No tīrtha is named; the emphasis is on the greatness of liṅga-bhakti itself.
General principle: offerings to the liṅga, whether small or large, are spiritually efficacious.
