Prabhāsa-kṣetra: Circuit of Tīrthas and Shrines Leading to Bhukti and Mokṣa
लभते वांछितान्कामान्देहांते स्वर्गमाप्नुयात् । भूद्वारं तु समभ्यर्च्य लभते वांछितं फलम् ॥ ५७ ॥
labhate vāṃchitānkāmāndehāṃte svargamāpnuyāt | bhūdvāraṃ tu samabhyarcya labhate vāṃchitaṃ phalam || 57 ||
望み求める諸願は成就し、命終には天界に至る。ブードヴァラを如法に礼拝供養すれば、願う果報を得る。
Suta (narrating the Narada Purana’s Uttara-Bhaga to the sages)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
It functions as a phala-śruti: it asserts that sincere tīrtha-worship (here, Bhūdvara) yields both worldly fulfilment (desired aims) and post-mortem merit (svarga), reinforcing faith in dharmic pilgrimage and worship.
Bhakti is expressed through samabhyarcana—reverent worship performed with faith. The verse emphasizes that devotion directed to a sacred locus (tīrtha) is efficacious and grants tangible spiritual and karmic outcomes.
It points to Kalpa (ritual procedure): the idea that proper, rule-based worship (samabhyarcya) at a designated sacred site produces defined results, reflecting the Purāṇic application of Vedic ritual discipline.
