Śiva lives there assuming the form of a naked Yogin. His wife Pārvatī is exquisitely beautiful in every limb. She is charming and has all the characteristics of a beautiful lady. Such an exquisite beauteous form has never been seen anywhere. It incites the enthusiasm of everybody. It is highly wonderful. It fascinates even the Yogins. It is worthy of being seen (ܻ岹śīⲹ). It is conducive to great prosperity. [...]�.
