神々の目的を成就させるため、シャンブは彼を呑み込まれた。しかも(シヴァの)腹中にあってなお、そこで極めて困難な苦行を修めたのである。
Īśvara (Śiva)
Tirtha: Śukra-antar-tapas episode (Prabhāsa localization)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Mahādevī (Pārvatī)
Scene: Śukra swallowed by Śambhu for the gods’ objective; inside a cosmic, cavern-like belly-space, Śukra continues austerities—meditating amid inner fire and mantra-light.
Even overwhelming trials become a field for tapas when one is aligned with divine purpose and devotion.
Prabhāsakṣetra, as the sacred setting where Śukra’s Śaiva episode is commemorated.
No direct ritual instruction; the verse emphasizes tapas as the archetypal practice.
