क्वाविमुक्तं महालिंगं चतुर्वर्गफलोदयम् । क्व पापि पापशैलोऽल्पो यःक्षयेन्नामसंभृतः
kvāvimuktaṃ mahāliṃgaṃ caturvargaphalodayam | kva pāpi pāpaśailo'lpo yaḥkṣayennāmasaṃbhṛtaḥ
阿毗穆克塔的大林伽,乃人生四大目标之果的涌现之源;与之相比,罪人那微小的“罪山”又算什么?仅凭称名便可磨灭。

Tirtha: Avimukta Mahāliṅga
Type: kshetra
Scene: A colossal radiant liṅga rises like a sun of caturvarga; beside it a tiny crumbling dark hill labeled ‘pāpa’ is worn away by the mere utterance of the name, depicted as sound-waves or script dissolving the rock.
The verse magnifies Avimukta’s saving power: before the great Liṅga, sin is portrayed as ultimately fragile and insignificant.
Avimukta in Kāśī, through the Mahāliṅga associated with Avimukteśvara.
Implicitly, reverent invocation and worship of Avimukta’s Mahāliṅga, whose sanctity eclipses sin.
