Notes:
Upon being requested by Deva-s ##devAH##; Viṣṇu ##viShNu## mentions that Mahādeva ##mahAdeva## and the Śivaliṅga ##shivali~Nga## must be worshipped with all due efforts. He further tells them that is worshiping Śiva ##shiva## while residing at Kumbhaghoṇam ##kumbhaghoNam## where He is known as Kumbhaghoṇeśa ##kumbhaghoNesha## and manifests as Kumbhaghoṇeśvara Sivaliṅgam ##kumbhaghoNeshvara shivali~Ngam##.
Viṣṇu ##viShNu## and delivers Upadeśa ##upadesha## about merits of worshiping Śiva ##shiva## especially with Pañcākṣara mantra ##pa~nchAkShara mantra##, Ṣaḍakṣara manta ##ShaDakShara mantra## and Śrī Rudram japa ##shrIrudraM japa##.##
