Bondage and Liberation: The Prakṛti–Karma Wheel and Śiva as the Transcendent Cause
यत्र विश्वस्य ते शंभुस्तत्र तस्मै फलप्रदः । स्वहस्ताल्लिख्यते यंत्रे स्थावरादावकृत्रिमे
yatra viśvasya te śaṃbhustatra tasmai phalapradaḥ | svahastāllikhyate yaṃtre sthāvarādāvakṛtrime
无论在何处安置你——宇宙之主商婆（Śambhu）——你即在彼处成为赐予彼信徒诸果（世间与出世间之果报）者。因此，坛城之“延怛罗”(yantra)应由行者亲手绘制，落于天然而稳固之基——如不动之平面——不假人为造作。

Sthala Purana: This verse teaches a portable/household ritual principle: wherever Śambhu is ritually ‘installed’ (āvaraṇa/yantra-pratiṣṭhā), He becomes phalaprada. It is not tied to a single sthala but generalizes the logic behind all Śiva-sthāpanā—presence through consecration and right procedure.
Significance: Establishes that grace and ‘fruits’ are accessible even outside major kṣetras when worship is properly grounded (adhāra) and personally performed (svahasta).
FAQs
It teaches that Shiva’s grace becomes immediately accessible wherever He is sincerely installed and worshipped; the “fruit” arises from devotion aligned with right method, not mere external display.
Yantra-worship is a Saguna support: like the Linga, the yantra serves as a sacred locus for invoking Shiva’s presence so the devotee can receive blessings and progress toward liberation.
Draw the Shiva-yantra yourself on a clean, natural, stable surface, then worship with mantra (especially the Panchakshara) and focused bhakti, treating the yantra as Shiva’s installed presence.
