गुणकार्यप्रसंगेन आवां प्रादुर्भवः कृतः । त्वं हि वै प्रकृतिः सूक्ष्मा रजःसत्त्वतमोमयी
guṇakāryaprasaṃgena āvāṃ prādurbhavaḥ kṛtaḥ | tvaṃ hi vai prakṛtiḥ sūkṣmā rajaḥsattvatamomayī
Durch das Entfalten der Guṇa und ihrer Wirkungen ist unsere Erscheinung hervorgebracht worden. Denn du bist wahrlich die feine Prakṛti, gebildet aus rajas, sattva und tamas.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) narrating within Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context
Tirtha: Kedāra
Type: kshetra
Scene: An allegorical depiction of subtle Prakṛti as Devī with three colored streams (white/red/black) flowing into the manifested world; figures representing guṇa-effects arise from the streams.
The world-process unfolds from Prakṛti through the three guṇas; spiritual progress involves understanding and transcending their play.
Kedāra-khaṇḍa context (Kedārakṣetra) surrounds the teaching, but this verse is primarily doctrinal.
None; it defines Prakṛti and the guṇas.
