इत्येवं चाक्षतान्पुष्पानारोप्य च शिवोपरि । प्रणमेद्भक्तितश्शंभुं साष्टांगं विधिवन्मुने ६१ ।
After repeating the hymn, the devotee shall place the flowers and the rice-grains over the phallic image of Śiva. O sages, he shall then prostrate before Śiva with devotion (his eight limbs touching the ground).
Then he shall make a full-throated sound.[61] He shall humbly bow down his head. He shall then make a formal request and perform the rite of ritualistic farewell.
O foremost among sages, thus have I explained to you the procedure for the worship of the phallic image that accords worldly pleasures, salvation and increases devotion to Śiva.
