भूतैः प्रेतैः पिशाचैश्च यत्स्थानं समधिष्ठितम् । एकावि चाष्टबालेयं त्रिगवं पञ्चमाहिषम् । षडश्वं सप्तमातंगं तद्गृहे वसतिस्तव
bhūtaiḥ pretaiḥ piśācaiśca yatsthānaṃ samadhiṣṭhitam | ekāvi cāṣṭabāleyaṃ trigavaṃ pañcamāhiṣam | ṣaḍaśvaṃ saptamātaṃgaṃ tadgṛhe vasatistava
ブータ(bhūta)・プレータ(preta)・ピシャーチャ(piśāca)に占められた住処——そこにこそ、女神よ、汝の座がある。羊一頭、若い牡牛八頭、牛三頭、水牛五頭、馬六頭、象七頭のある家——その家が汝の住まいである。
Skanda (Kumāra) (deduced from Prabhāsa Khaṇḍa māhātmya narration style)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A liminal courtyard at night: faint silhouettes of bhūtas/pretas/piśācas at the edges; domestic animals enumerated—sheep, calves, cows, buffaloes, horses, elephants—arranged symbolically; a goddess presence presiding over the uncanny scene.
Impure conditions and disorderly living are portrayed as inviting lower spirits; dharmic order and purity protect the home.
Prabhāsakṣetra (Prabhāsa), within the Prabhāsa Khaṇḍa’s sacred geography.
No direct rite is prescribed here; the verse functions as a diagnostic sign-list for spiritual affliction.
