Sūta said: He who makes the idol of Śiva, the lord of the chiefs of Devas, Iśvara the destroyer of the Tripuras, with bow and arrows in his hands, the crescent moon as an ornament, seated in a chariot accompanied by Umā and being charioteered by the four-faced lord (Brahmā), assumes that form (of Śiva) and goes to the city of Siva. He is happy and he undoubtedly sports like the second Śiva. O excellent brahmins, after enjoying great pleasures there, as much as he desires and having obtained perfect knowledge after due deliberation he is liberated there itself.
