उवाच वाक्यं जगदेकमंगलं हिमालयो वाक्यविदां वरिष्ठः
uvāca vākyaṃ jagadekamaṃgalaṃ himālayo vākyavidāṃ variṣṭhaḥ
Himālaya, el más excelso entre los elocuentes, pronunció palabras que eran la única bienaventuranza del mundo.
Himālaya (Himavān)
Tirtha: Kedāra (contextual)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Implied sages/devotees
Scene: Himālaya, personified as a dignified mountain-king, begins to speak—hands poised, face luminous—before Śiva’s tranquil presence; attendants (ṛṣis/devas) listen in hushed awe amid snowy grandeur.
Sacred speech (stuti) offered to the Lord becomes a vehicle of universal auspiciousness.
Kedārakhaṇḍa’s Himalayan sanctum where Himavān offers praise in Śiva’s presence.
No explicit prescription; it models stotra-like praise as a devotional act.
