मां पातु देवोऽखिलदेवतात्मा संसारकूपे पतितं गभीरे । तन्नाम दिव्यं वरमंत्रमूलं धुनोतु मे सर्वमघं हृदिस्थम्
māṃ pātu devo'khiladevatātmā saṃsārakūpe patitaṃ gabhīre | tannāma divyaṃ varamaṃtramūlaṃ dhunotu me sarvamaghaṃ hṛdistham
愿那位天神(Deva)——具足一切诸神之体性者——护佑我这堕入深沉轮回之井者。愿其神圣名号,乃诸咒之胜妙根本,震荡并除尽我心中所住的一切罪垢。
Anonymous Purāṇic narrator (kavaca-style supplication)
Scene: A devotee at the edge of a dark, deep well labeled ‘saṃsāra’; from above descends a stream of luminous syllables (Śiva-nāma) that becomes a rope of light pulling the devotee upward; the heart glows as impurities scatter.
Śiva’s Name is a mantra-root that purifies the heart and lifts one from the depths of saṃsāra.
No tīrtha is specified; the verse glorifies the saving power of the Lord’s divine Name.
Implicit nāma-japa (recollection/recitation of the divine Name) as a purifier and protector.
