अद्यापि तिष्ठते तत्र विरुद्धं रूपमाश्रिता । जनहास्य करं नित्यं तस्मात्सूत वदस्व नः
adyāpi tiṣṭhate tatra viruddhaṃ rūpamāśritā | janahāsya karaṃ nityaṃ tasmātsūta vadasva naḥ
今なお彼女はそこにとどまり、調和を欠く姿をまとって、常に人々の笑いの種となっている。ゆえに、スータよ、その理由を我らに語ってください。
Ṛṣis (sages)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Sūta
Scene: The maiden remains at the shrine in an odd/discordant form; some people laugh while a few devotees show compassion; sages urge Sūta to explain; the contrast between mockery and reverence is central.
Outer oddity invites deeper explanation; Purāṇic tīrtha-stories interpret visible phenomena as moral and karmic teachings.
Citrapīṭha, where the narrative claims these forms are still present.
None; the verse requests the narrative cause behind the site’s legend.
