एवमुक्त्वाऽथ विप्रः स त्रिजातः परमेश्वरम् । प्रार्थयामास मे देव तं वरं यच्छ सांप्रतम्
evamuktvā'tha vipraḥ sa trijātaḥ parameśvaram | prārthayāmāsa me deva taṃ varaṃ yaccha sāṃpratam
So sprach jener Brahmane Trijāta und flehte zu Parameśvara: „O mein Herr, gewähre mir jetzt jene Gabe.“
Narrator (reporting Trijāta’s prayer)
Type: temple/kshetra
Scene: Trijāta, the brāhmaṇa, steps forward after speaking, turns fully toward Parameśvara, and formally petitions: ‘Grant that boon now.’ The deity’s presence is majestic yet accessible.
Prayer (prārthanā) is presented as the rightful means to invoke divine intervention for dharmic aims.
The verse stays within the tīrtha-māhātmya storyline but does not name a specific site here.
No formal ritual; the act is direct supplication to Śiva.
