मेनायाः क्रोध-विलापः — Menā’s Lament and Reproach
to the Sage
सिद्धा ऊचुः । अयम्वै परमस्साक्षाच्छिवः परसुखावहः । कृपया च भवत्पुत्र्यै दर्शनन्दत्तवान्प्रभुः
siddhā ūcuḥ | ayamvai paramassākṣācchivaḥ parasukhāvahaḥ | kṛpayā ca bhavatputryai darśanandattavānprabhuḥ
诸悉地者说道:“此确为至上者——湿婆亲自显现在我们面前——赐予无上安乐。出于慈悲,主已赐予你的女儿神圣的瞻礼(darśana)。”
The Siddhas (Siddhāḥ)
Tattva Level: pati
Shiva Form: Sadāśiva
Type: stotra
Shakti Form: Pārvatī
Role: liberating
It highlights Shiva as the Supreme Reality who becomes directly knowable through grace (kṛpā), granting darśan that leads the soul toward the highest bliss and liberation.
The verse emphasizes Saguna revelation—Shiva personally giving darśan. In Linga worship, the same compassionate Lord is approached through a sacred, accessible form, culminating in inner and outer “vision” of Shiva.
The takeaway is grace-centered devotion: approach Shiva with bhakti, japa of the Panchākṣarī (Om Namaḥ Śivāya), and purity; such practice is traditionally supported by Tripuṇḍra (bhasma) and Rudrākṣa as aids to steady remembrance.
