एकांते सदसो मध्ये होमार्थं द्विजसत्तमाः । तस्मिन्व्याकुलतां याते ब्राह्मणः कश्चिदागतः
ekāṃte sadaso madhye homārthaṃ dvijasattamāḥ | tasminvyākulatāṃ yāte brāhmaṇaḥ kaścidāgataḥ
એકાંત સ્થાને, યજ્ઞસભાના મધ્યમાં, શ્રેષ્ઠ દ્વિજગણ હોમ માટે તૈયાર હતા. તે સમયે ત્યાં ગભરાટ થયો અને એક બ્રાહ્મણ આવી પહોંચ્યો.
Sūta (continuing narration)
Tirtha: Keśvara-kṣetra (Śrīhāṭa)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and sages
Scene: Within the sadas, priests pause mid-preparation for homa as a lone brāhmaṇa enters; heads turn, a ripple of commotion spreads; the newcomer’s calm presence contrasts with the busy ritual setting.
Ritual space is portrayed as sensitive and consequential; unexpected arrivals can test the steadiness of dharma.
The narrative remains under the Nāgara Khaṇḍa’s tīrtha-māhātmya umbrella associated with Śrīhāṭa–Keśvara-kṣetra.
Preparation for homa within the sadas (sacrificial hall), indicating proper spatial and procedural arrangement.
