अपराधसहस्रं तु क्षमते तस्य भैरवः । धेनुदानं प्रशंसंति तस्मिन्स्थाने महर्षयः
aparādhasahasraṃ tu kṣamate tasya bhairavaḥ | dhenudānaṃ praśaṃsaṃti tasminsthāne maharṣayaḥ
Bhairava tha thứ cho người sùng kính ấy dù đến ngàn lỗi lầm. Tại nơi ấy, các bậc đại hiền thánh ca ngợi việc bố thí bò (dhenu-dāna).
Śiva (Īśvara)
Tirtha: Bhairava-kṣamā at Prabhāsa; Dhenu-dāna praised by ṛṣis
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (Pārvatī)
Scene: Bhairava as fierce yet compassionate guardian near the shrine, right hand in abhaya; devotee kneels in repentance; sages in the background approving; a cow being respectfully gifted with water-pot and cloth, symbolizing dhenu-dāna.
Divine grace (kṣamā) and dharmic charity work together: sincere worship invites forgiveness, while dāna supports purification and merit.
The Mahākāleśvara/Bhairava-associated sacred zone in Prabhāsa-kṣetra.
Dhenu-dāna (cow-gift) is commended as an especially meritorious act at that site.
