सहस्रकिरणो देवो हर्ता कर्ता निरञ्जनः । अवतारेण लोकानामुद्धर्ता नर्मदातटे
sahasrakiraṇo devo hartā kartā nirañjanaḥ | avatāreṇa lokānāmuddhartā narmadātaṭe
Dewa seribu sinar itu—murni, tanpa noda, yang mengambil dan yang mencipta—turun sebagai avatāra dan menjadi penyelamat dunia-dunia di tepi Sungai Narmadā.
Yudhiṣṭhira (continuing his inquiry)
Divinity manifests within sacred landscapes to uplift beings; the Narmadā’s banks are portrayed as a stage for cosmic rescue.
The Narmadā riverbank (Revā-taṭa) is highlighted as the locus of Āditya’s saving manifestation.
No explicit rite is stated here; the verse sets theological context for a Sun-related tīrtha narrative.
