इति वाचं निशम्येशः परोपकृतिशालिनीम् । सुलक्षणाया नितरां तुतोष प्रणतार्तिहा
iti vācaṃ niśamyeśaḥ paropakṛtiśālinīm | sulakṣaṇāyā nitarāṃ tutoṣa praṇatārtihā
主听到这些充满利他之心的话语——那位除去归依者苦恼的主——对苏拉克沙那极为欢喜。
Skanda (narrator) describing Śiva’s response
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta-kṣetra)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Śiva, serene and radiant, listens approvingly as Sulakṣaṇā speaks with compassionate resolve; Pārvatī stands nearby, attentive to the exchange.
Divine pleasure is especially won by selfless compassion; surrender and benevolence draw Śiva’s grace.
Kāśī is the overarching sacred setting; the verse highlights the ethos of the kṣetra—mercy that swiftly reaches the devoted.
None; it emphasizes inner disposition—paropakāra and śaraṇāgati (surrender).
