Brahmā said: There is no doubt that it is the vow of the sages also. Hence one should worship Śiva. If one does not think about the only God Śiva, even for a moment, it is a loss, it is a great blemish, it is delusion, it is silence. Those who indulge in devotion to him, those who mentally bow down to him, and those who attempt to remember Bhava are never subjected to misery. The fruit of the worship of Śiva is as follows:—Pleasant and charming abodes, divine ornaments, women, and riches till one is satisfied. May those who wish for enjoyment of great pleasures or the kingdom of heaven, worship Maheśvara in the Liṅga form, at all times.
