Knowledge comes via devotion

विज्ञानं न भवत्येव द्विजा भक्तिविरोधिनः |

शम्भुभक्तिकरस्यैव भवेज्ज्ञानोदयो द्रुतम् || 25 ||

तस्माद्भक्तिर्महेशस्य साधनीया मुनीश्वराः |

तयैव निखिलं सिद्धं भविष्यति न संशयः || 26 ||

 

Brahmins (sages), the specific knowledge (of the supreme element) does not come to those who are against devotion. Knowledge dawns quickly only on those who have devotion for Lord Shiva.
Therefore, great sages, devotion of the great God should be aimed for. Only with that does everything succeed (is achieved), no doubt.
