Ghushmesha Jyotirlinga creation and greatness/importance description Chapter 33



घुश्मोवाच |
Ghushma said (to God)



अपकारेषु यश्चैव ह्युपकारं करोति च |
तस्य दर्शनमात्रेण पापं दूरतरं व्रजेत् || 39 ||
इति श्रुतं मया देव भगवद्वाक्यमद्भुतम् |
तस्माच्चैव कृतं येन क्रियतां च सदाशिव || 40 ||



And one who does good only to (someone who) does harm, by just the sight of that person sin goes far away.
Deva, so have I heard (this) wonderful sentence of God. And therefore, Lord Shiva (one who is always good/auspicious), so should be done to the one who did (the sin).



God tells Parvati in Tulsidas Ramayana
उमा संत के इहई बडाई |
मंद करत जो करई भलाई ||
