ये नरास्तु जितक्रोधा जितलोभा जितेंद्रियाः । ब्राह्मणाः क्षत्रिया वैश्याः शूद्राश्चादम्भमत्सराः
ye narāstu jitakrodhā jitalobhā jiteṃdriyāḥ | brāhmaṇāḥ kṣatriyā vaiśyāḥ śūdrāścādambhamatsarāḥ
Doch jene Menschen, die den Zorn besiegt, die Gier besiegt und ihre Sinne gemeistert haben—ob Brāhmaṇas, Kṣatriyas, Vaiśyas oder Śūdras—frei von Heuchelei und Neid, (sind des wahren Ertrags des Tīrtha würdig).
Śiva (Īśvara)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (Pārvatī)
Scene: A diverse group of pilgrims—brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya, śūdra—stand at Prabhāsa with folded hands; above them symbolic figures of anger and greed subdued underfoot; the sea-horizon and a distant Somnath-like shrine suggest the kṣetra’s sanctity.
Inner victory over anger, greed, and the senses—along with freedom from hypocrisy and envy—makes one truly qualified for tīrtha merit.
The virtues are described in the context of Prabhāsa Māhātmya as the qualifications to receive Prabhāsa’s fruit.
A moral-ascetic prescription is given: cultivate self-control and sincerity as the foundation for successful pilgrimage and worship.
