पुलस्त्य उवाच । ततः शुक्रेश्वरं गच्छेच्छुक्रेण स्थापितं पुरा । यं दृष्ट्वा मानवः सद्यः सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते
pulastya uvāca | tataḥ śukreśvaraṃ gacchecchukreṇa sthāpitaṃ purā | yaṃ dṛṣṭvā mānavaḥ sadyaḥ sarvapāpaiḥ pramucyate
普罗罗斯提耶(Pulastya)说道:随后应前往由舒克罗(Śukra)久远以前所建立的舒克雷湿伐罗(Śukreśvara);一经瞻礼,世人即刻解脱一切罪垢。
Pulastya
Tirtha: Śukreśvara
Type: kshetra
Listener: Nṛpa-sattama (king)
Scene: Pulastya instructs the king; the scene shifts to a hill-temple where a Śiva-liṅga bears Śukra’s association—perhaps with a subtle icon of Śukra (white-robed, radiant) in the background as the founder.
Darśana of a consecrated Śiva-linga at a famed tīrtha is portrayed as instantly purifying.
Śukreśvara—said to have been established by Śukra (Bhārgava) in the Arbuda sacred region.
Pilgrimage and darśana: “one should go” (gacchet) and see Śukreśvara for purification.
