तारकस्तु गतो नाशं मुक्तः प्राणैश्च तत्क्षणात् । ततो देवगणाः सर्वे संहृष्टास्तं महाबलम्
tārakastu gato nāśaṃ muktaḥ prāṇaiśca tatkṣaṇāt | tato devagaṇāḥ sarve saṃhṛṣṭāstaṃ mahābalam
તારક તે જ ક્ષણે પ્રાણોથી વિયોગ પામી નાશને પામ્યો. ત્યારબાદ સર્વ દેવગણ હર્ષિત થઈ તે મહાબલવાન (સ્કંદ)ની સ્તુતિ કરવા લાગ્યા।
Sūta (deduced from the narration; explicit from v.23 onward)
Tirtha: Camatkārapura (contextual)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Tāraka lies fallen; the devas, relieved and radiant, gather in praise of the mighty Skanda as the battlefield’s fury settles into calm.
When adharma is destroyed, the devas (forces of harmony) naturally rejoice—signifying restoration of ṛta and protection of sacred order.
The immediate verse is not naming a tīrtha, but it belongs to the Camatkārapura-centered māhātmya sequence in this adhyāya.
None; it is a narrative proclamation of Tāraka’s fall and divine rejoicing.
