He who praises the auspicious god with these nourishment-increasing names, ever steadfast, pure and devoted, attains the self through the self.

13.48.157

एतद्धि परमं ब्रह्म परं ब्रह्माधिगच्छति ॥ १३.४८.१५७ ॥

This indeed is the supreme Brahman; by it one attains the highest Brahman.

13.48.158

Sages and gods too praise that supreme one by this.

13.48.159

स्तूयमानो महादेवस्तष्यते नियतात्मभिः ।
भक्तानुकम्पी भगवानात्मसंस्थाकरो विभुः ॥ १३.४८.१५९ ॥

Mahādeva, when praised by those of disciplined minds, is pleased; the blessed Lord, compassionate to devotees, who establishes beings in their own self, the all-pervading one, is pleased.

13.48.160

तथैव च मनुष्येषु ये मनुष्याः प्रधानतः ।
आस्तिकाः श्रद्धधानाश्च बहुभिर्जन्मभिः स्तवैः ॥ १३.४८.१६० ॥

Likewise among humans, those men who are chiefly believers and full of faith, through many births and by praises, (come to him).

13.48.161

भक्त्या ह्यनन्यमीशानं परं देवं सनातनम् ।
कर्मणा मनसा वाचा भावेनामिततेजसः ॥ १३.४८.१६१ ॥

Only through undivided devotion is that Īśāna, the supreme, eternal god of boundless splendor, attained—by action, by mind, by speech, and by inner feeling.

13.48.162

शयाना जाग्रमाणाश्च व्रजन्नुपविशंस्तथा ।
उन्मिषन्निमिषंश्चैव चिन्तयन्तः पुनःपनः ॥ १३.४८.१६२ ॥

Lying down, waking, walking, sitting, likewise opening and closing the eyes, thinking of him again and again.

13.48.163

शृण्वन्तः श्रावयन्तश्च कथयन्तश्च ते भवम् ।
स्तुवन्तः स्तूयामानाश्च तुष्यन्ति च रमन्ति च ॥ १३.४८.१६३ ॥

Hearing, causing to hear, and speaking of Bhava; praising and being praised, they are pleased and they delight.

13.48.164

जन्मकोटिसहस्रेषु नानासंसारयोनिषु ।
जन्तोर्विगतपापस्य भवे भक्तिः प्रजायते ॥ १३.४८.१६४ ॥

Over thousands of millions of births, through the various wombs of saṃsāra, in a living being whose sin has departed, devotion to Bhava arises.

13.48.165

उत्पन्ना च भवे भक्तिरनत्या सर्वभावतः ।
भाविनः कारणे चास्य सर्वयुक्तस्य सर्वथा ॥ १३.४८.१६५ ॥

Devotion arisen toward Bhava is unwavering in every mode of being, and toward him who is the cause of what is to come, joined to all in every way.

13.48.166

एतद्देवेषु दुष्प्रापं मनुष्येषु न लभ्तते ।
निर्विघ्रा निश्चला रुद्रे भक्तिरव्यभिचारिणी ॥ १३.४८.१६६ ॥

This is hard to obtain even among the gods and is not found among men: unobstructed, steady, unwavering devotion to Rudra.

13.48.167

तस्यैव च प्रसादेन भक्तिरुत्पद्यते नृणाम् ।
येन यान्ति परां सिद्धिं तद्भागवतचेतसः ॥ १३.४८.१६७ ॥

By his grace alone devotion arises in men, and by it those whose minds are devoted to the Lord attain the highest perfection.

13.48.168

प्रपन्नवत्सलो देवः संसारात्तान्समुद्धरेत् ॥ १३.४८.१६८ ॥

Those who follow him in every mode of being and take refuge in the Great Lord—the god, tender toward those who take refuge—will lift them entirely out of worldly existence.

13.48.169

एवमन्ये विकुर्वन्ति देवाः संसारमोचनम् ।
मनुष्याणामृते देवं नान्या शक्तिस्तपोबलम्
इति तेनेन्द्रकल्पेन भगवान्सदसत्पतिः ।
कृत्तिवासाः स्तुतः कृष्ण तण्डिना शुभबुद्धिना ॥ १३.४८.१६९ ॥

Thus others distort liberation from worldly existence; for men there is no power or strength of austerity other than that god. So Taṇḍin, equal to Indra and of good intellect, praised the venerable lord of the existent and non-existent, the one clad in a hide, O Kṛṣṇa.

13.48.171

स्तवमेतं भगवतो ब्रह्मा स्वयमधारयत् ।
गीयते च स बुद्ध्येत ब्रह्म शंकरसन्निधौ ॥ १३.४८.१७१ ॥

Brahmā himself held this hymn to the venerable lord; it is sung in the presence of Śaṃkara—may he understand Brahman.

योगदं मोक्षदं चैव स्वर्गदं तोषदं तथा ॥ १३.४८.१७२ ॥

This hymn is meritorious and purifying, always destroying sin. It bestows union, liberation, heaven and contentment.

या गतिः साङ्ख्ययोगानां व्रजन्त्येतां गतिं तदा ॥ १३.४८.१७३ ॥

Those who recite this hymn to Śaṅkara thus, with single devotion, then attain the very goal reached by the followers of Sāṅkhya and Yoga.

13.48.174

अब्धमेकं चरेद्भक्तः प्राप्नुयादीप्सितं फलम् ॥ १३.४८.१७४ ॥

A devotee should always recite this hymn diligently in the presence of Rudra for a year; he will obtain the desired fruit.

13.48.175

ब्रह्मा प्रोवाच शक्राय शक्रः प्रोवाच मृत्यवे ॥ १३.४८.१७५ ॥

This supreme secret, which lay in the heart of Brahmā, Brahmā declared to Śakra, and Śakra declared to Death.

13.48.176

महता तपसा प्राप्तस्तण्डिना ब्रह्मसद्मानि ॥ १३.४८.१७६ ॥

Death declared it to the Rudras, and from the Rudras it came to Taṇḍi; by great austerity Taṇḍi attained the abodes of Brahmā.

13.48.177

तण्डिः प्रोवाच शुक्राय गौतमाय च भार्गवः ।
वैवस्वताय मनवे गौतमः प्राह माधव ॥ १३.४८.१७७ ॥

Taṇḍi declared it to Śukra and to Gautama, and the Bhārgava as well; Gautama declared it to Vaivasvata Manu. O Mādhava!

यमाय प्राह भगवान्साध्यो नारायणोच्युतः ॥ १३.४८.१७८ ॥

To Nārāyaṇa, to the Sādhyas, to the wise one established in samādhi (he spoke). To Yama, the blessed Sādhya, the imperishable Nārāyaṇa, spoke.

13.48.179

नाचिकेताय भगवानाह वैवस्वतो यमः ।
मार्कण्डेयाय वार्ष्णेय नाचिकेतोऽभ्यभाषत ॥ १३.४८.१७९ ॥

To Nāciketas the blessed Vaivasvata Yama spoke. To Mārkaṇḍeya, O descendant of Vṛṣṇi, Nāciketas addressed (his words).

13.48.180

मार्कण्डेयान्मय प्राप्तो नियमेन जनार्दन ।
तवाप्यहममित्रघ्न स्तवं दद्यां ह्यविश्रुतम्। ॥ १३.४८.१८० ॥

From Mārkaṇḍeya I obtained it through disciplined observance. O Janārdana, O slayer of enemies, I shall give this little-known hymn to you as well.

13.48.181

स्वर्ग्यमारोग्यमायुष्यं धन्यं वेदेनि संमितम् ।
नास्य विघ्रं विकुर्वन्ति दानवा यक्षराक्षसाः ॥ १३.४८.१८१ ॥

It leads to heaven, grants health, long life and wealth, and accords with the Veda. Dānavas, yakṣas and rākṣasas do not obstruct it.

13.48.182

पिशाचा यातुधाना वा गुह्यका भुजगा अपि ।
यः पठेत शुचिः पार्थ ब्रह्मचारी जितेन्द्रियः।
अभग्रयोगो वर्षं तु सोऽश्वमेधफलं लभेत् ॥ १३.४८.१८२ ॥

Piśācas, yātudhānas, guhyakas and even serpents do not harm him who recites it purely, as a celibate with his senses mastered. O son of Pṛthā, whoever recites it for a year with unbroken discipline obtains the fruit of the Aśvamedha sacrifice.
