Chapter 222 - Greatness of Rukmavatīśvara
[Sanskrit text for this chapter is available]
Īśvara said:
1-2. There itself is situated the Liṅga installed by Rukmavatī. It suppresses all the sins and bestows all the desired benefits.
A pilgrim should take his holy bath in the great Tīrtha and pour water over the Liṅga carefully. Then he should make gifts of money to Brāhmaṇas. He will be relieved of all sins.
