fruit > of bathing in the river of the gods may be attained; it is an utter secret: / 11 > To a devotee of Śiva, peaceful, devoted to the worship of Viṣṇu, > full of faith, orthodox, and desirous of liberation from dwelling in the womb, / 12 > it should be told, and never to anyone else, by anyone, anywhere. > This is the supreme secret, destroying great sins, / 13 > bestowing great welfare,
