Sarvakarmaphala (सर्वकर्मफल) refers to the “fruits of all actions”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.41.—Accordingly, as Viṣṇu and others eulogized Śiva:—“[...] O lord, the activities of auspicious nature result in happiness to the doer whereas inauspicious activities end in adverse, or in partially good and bad results. You alone are the bestower of the fruits of all actions (i.e., sarvakarmaphala). You are the lord of glorious things according to the Vedas”.
