Word breakdown
- भूदारतामुदवहद्यदपेक्षया श्री
- O good-minded one, obtain the field of liberation-medicines
- भूदार एव किमतः सुमते लभस्व
- worship of the supreme Lord's lotus feet
- केदारमाकलितमुक्तिमहौषधीनां
- earth's firmness was borne for its sake
- पादारविन्दभजनं परमेश्वरस्य
- what more than that
Liberation-medicines grow in the field of Shiva's feet-worship. Earth itself was firm for that sake; nothing surpasses foot-worship as the path to the Self.
