Chapter Two·Devarāja Reaches Śiva's World by Hearing the Śiva Purāṇa·Verses 1–40
अथ द्वितीयोऽध्यायः
Śaunaka thanks Sūta for the wonderful story and asks which sinners of the Kali age it can make pure. Sūta says this Purāṇa is a sacrifice of knowledge that cleans even the greedy, the cruel, the cheats and those who live on stolen wealth. He then tells an old story. In a town of the Kirātas lived a poor, ignorant brahmin named Devarāja, who sold liquor, gave up his daily rites and cheated those who trusted him. He killed people of every class for their money. He fell for a courtesan named Śobhāvatī and lived with her as if they were married. One night he killed his mother, his father and his wife as they slept, and gave all their wealth to her. By chance he came to Pratiṣṭhāna, fell ill with fever in a Śiva temple, and for a month kept hearing the Śiva Purāṇa told there. When he died, Yama's servants dragged him to Yama's city. But Śiva's attendants came from Śiva's world, beat Yama's servants, freed him and set him in a wonderful sky-chariot. Yama came out, honoured them and asked nothing, out of fear. They took Devarāja to Kailāsa and gave him to Śiva. So even the worst sinner, the killer of his own family, was freed in a moment in Śiva's highest abode, just by hearing this story.शौनकजी सूतजीको इस अद्भुत कथाके लिये धन्यवाद देते हैं और पूछते हैं कि कलियुगके कौन-कौन पापी इससे शुद्ध होते हैं। सूतजी कहते हैं कि यह पुराण ज्ञानयज्ञ है; यह लोभी, क्रूर, छली और दूसरोंका धन खानेवालोंको भी शुद्ध कर देता है। फिर वे एक पुरानी कथा सुनाते हैं। किरातोंके नगरमें देवराज नामका एक गरीब, अज्ञानी ब्राह्मण रहता था। वह शराब बेचता था, सन्ध्या-स्नान छोड़ चुका था और भरोसा करनेवालोंको ठगता था। उसने धनके लिये सब वर्णोंके लोगोंको मारा। वह शोभावती नामकी वेश्यापर मोहित हुआ और उसके साथ पति-पत्नीकी तरह रहने लगा। एक रात उसने सोते हुए माता, पिता और पत्नीको मार डाला और उनका सारा धन उसे दे दिया। संयोगसे वह प्रतिष्ठान पहुँचा, वहाँ एक शिवालयमें ज्वरसे पीड़ित पड़ा रहा और महीनेभर शिवपुराणकी कथा सुनता रहा। मरनेपर यमके दूत उसे बाँधकर यमपुरी ले गये। पर शिवलोकसे शिवके गण आये, यमदूतोंको पीटा, उसे छुड़ाया और एक अद्भुत विमानमें बिठाया। यमराजने बाहर आकर उनकी पूजा की और डरके मारे कुछ नहीं पूछा। गण देवराजको कैलास ले जाकर शिवको सौंप आये। इस तरह माता-पिता और पत्नीका हत्यारा वह पापी भी इस कथाको सुननेभरसे शिवके परम धाममें क्षणभरमें मुक्त हो गया।
