كان سامبا ابن جامبَفَتي يعبد إله الشمس كلَّ يوم. فلمّا رأى فيشنو العظيم الرحيم ثباته في التقشّف والزهد، التفت إليه بعنايته.

Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (Sūrya-upāsanā locus)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Sāmba performs daily Sūrya worship with austere discipline; Viṣṇu, compassionate, observes and is moved by his tapas-niṣṭhā.
Steady daily worship and disciplined tapas draw the attention of divine compassion and open the way for grace.
Prabhāsa Kṣetra is the implied setting where Sāmba performs regular worship.
Nitya-ārādhanā—regular daily worship (here, Sūrya worship in context).
