«ដូច្នេះ ដោយអាស្រ័យលើអ្នកទាំងពីរ ខ្ញុំត្រូវធ្វើឲ្យសុខសាន្តកើតមានក្នុងក្សេត្រពិសិដ្ឋនេះ—ជាពិសេសសម្រាប់ព្រះព្រាហ្មណ៍ទាំងឡាយ ហើយសម្រាប់អ្នកស្នាក់នៅទីនេះផងដែរ»។
Maheśvara (Śiva)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Śiva addresses two agents/figures (implied ‘the two of you’) commissioning them to establish well-being in the kṣetra; background shows orderly settlement—ghāṭa, shrine, and homes—symbolizing protected community life.
A tīrtha’s greatness includes social and spiritual welfare—protecting those who uphold rites and those who live within the sacred geography.
A particular kṣetra within the Nāgarakhaṇḍa Tīrthamāhātmya is implied, presented as a refuge and center of well-being (the name is not specified in this verse alone).
No direct ritual is given; the instruction is administrative/spiritual—ensuring peace and prosperity in the kṣetra.
