Verily, that asylum was honoured and adored by the gods and all great beings, by Shiva and others, O Bharata, and by all : creatures of pious deeds. Thus addressed, it stood in all its beauty on the breast of Himavata, like the lunar disc in the sky.
सुपूजितं देवगणैर्महात्मभिः शिवादिभिर्भारत पुण्यकर्मभिः। रराज तच्चाश्रममण्डलं सदा दिवीव राजन् शशिमण्डलं यथा॥
