Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 38
ब्रह्मस्थाने तथैकेन भोजितेन तु तत्फलम् । एवं ज्ञात्वा महादेवि तत्र तिष्ठामि निर्वृतः । कोटिर्भिर्देवऋषिभिर्देवैः सह समावृतः । तीर्थानि तत्र तिष्ठंति अंतर्भूतानि वै कलौ
brahmasthāne tathaikena bhojitena tu tatphalam | evaṃ jñātvā mahādevi tatra tiṣṭhāmi nirvṛtaḥ | koṭirbhirdevaṛṣibhirdevaiḥ saha samāvṛtaḥ | tīrthāni tatra tiṣṭhaṃti aṃtarbhūtāni vai kalau
সেই ব্রহ্মস্থানে এক জন যোগ্যকে ভোজন করালেই সেই ফলই লাভ হয়। এ কথা জেনে, হে মহাদেবী, আমি সেখানে পরম তৃপ্তিতে বাস করি—দেবঋষি ও দেবতাদের কোটি দ্বারা পরিবৃত। কলিযুগে সকল তীর্থই সেখানে অবস্থান করে; সত্যই তারা সেই স্থানে অন্তর্ভূত।
Śiva (deduced from address to Mahādevī and Somnātha/Prabhāsa context)
Tirtha: Brahma-sthāna (within Prabhāsa-kṣetra)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Mahādevī (Pārvatī)
Scene: Śiva speaks to Devī about Brahma-sthāna: a radiant spot within Prabhāsa where gods and devaṛṣis gather in countless numbers; a single feeding act shines as equal to vast charity; subtle imagery of many tīrthas ‘contained’ like streams converging into one luminous center.
