तस्मात्कर्मफलत्यागाच्छिवधर्मान्वयः शुभः ॥ स च गुर्वनपेक्षश्च तदपेक्ष इति द्विधा ॥ ३६ ॥
As a result of the abandonment of the desire for the fruits of holy rites, the auspicious Śaivite virtues are attained. This is twofold: that dependent on the preceptor and that which is not.
english translation
तत्रानपेक्षात्सापेक्षो मुख्यः शतगुणाधिकः ॥ शिवधर्मान्वयस्यास्य शिवज्ञानसमन्वयः ॥ ३७ ॥
That which is dependent on the preceptor is more important and hundred times more efficacious since in the Śaivite creed there is an association of Śaivite knowledge.

ज्ञनान्वयवशात्पुंसः संसारे दोषदर्शनम् ॥ ततो विषयवैराग्यं वैराग्याद्भावसाधनम् ॥ ३८ ॥
In view of the knowledge the man sees the defects in the worldly existence (saṃsāra). Thereafter arises non-attachment to the sensual objects and thence Bhāva is attained.

योगेन तु परा भक्तिः प्रसादस्तदनंतरम् ॥ प्रसादान्मुच्यते जंतुर्मुक्तः शिवसमो भवेत् ॥ ४० ॥
