प्राजापत्यं यदा ऋक्षं तिथौ तस्यां भवेद्यदि । सा महाकार्तिकी पुण्या देवानामपि दुर्लभा
prājāpatyaṃ yadā ṛkṣaṃ tithau tasyāṃ bhavedyadi | sā mahākārtikī puṇyā devānāmapi durlabhā
その同じティティにプラージャーパティヤの宿が現れるなら、そのカーर्तिकीは至大にして清浄なるマハーカーर्तिकीとなる。神々にさえ稀なる日である。
Śiva (Īśvara)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa
Type: kshetra
Listener: Kṛṣṇa
Scene: A ‘rare even for gods’ night at Prabhāsa: the sky is emphasized with bright constellations; pilgrims perform intensified worship, lamps and offerings filling the shoreline/temple precinct.
Rare cosmic alignments intensify dharma and merit, making certain observances exceptionally fruitful.
The context remains Prabhāsa-kṣetra, where such sacred timing is especially celebrated.
Honoring Kārtikī when the Prājāpatya nakṣatra coincides, recognizing it as Mahākārtikī.
