Notes:
Tells Pārvatī ##pArvatI## about the Vṛddhācālakṣetra ##vR^iddhAchalakShetra## and the River MaṇiMuktā ##maNimuktA## that flows through it - having multitudes of Bilva Trees ##bilvavR^ikShAH## along its banks. He highlights the merits of bathing in that river and worshiping Him in that kṣetra ##kShetra## as Vṛddhācāleśvara##vR^iddhAchaleshvara##.
Ṛṣi Gautama ##R^iShi gautama## eulogizes Rudra ##rudra## (at Vṛddhācāleśvaram ##vR^iddhAchaleshvaram##) as The One Present in and Source of all that exists. He is the One who is revered by all deities including Viṣṇu ##viShNu##, Brahmā ##brahmA##, Skanda ##skanda## et al. He is the One who manifests in The Sun and The Moon, in the Saptalokāḥ ##saptalokAH## viz., Bhūḥ ##bhUH##, Bhuvaḥ ##bhuvaH##, Suvaḥ ##suvaH##, Mahaḥ ##mahaH##, Janaḥ ##janaH##, Tapaḥ ##tapaH## and Satyaṁ ##satyaM##. He is The One Existent in the Tattva-s including Vāyu ##vAyu##, Teja ##teja##, Ākāsha ##AkAsha##; and The One who propels the Highest Principles of Satyaṁ ##satyaM## and Ṛtaṁ ##R^itaM##.
In a similar composition - Devakṛtopaniṣatsāra Rudrastavaḥ ##devakR^itopaniShatsAra rudrastavaH## in ŚrīŚivaRahasyam ##shrIshivarahasyam## . Māheśvarākhyaḥ ##mAheshvarAkhyaH## Prathamāṃśaḥ ##prathamAMshaH## . Adhyāyaḥ 54 ##adhyAyaH 54##; Deva-s ##devAH## eulogize The One Who Exists in All Worlds, Places, Things, Elements, Directions, Events, Beings, Times, as propounded in The Upaniṣat ##upaniShat## - the mystery that rests underneath the external system of things. The link to the same is also given below.##
