sāmavedo hyahaṃ devi brahmā ṛgveda ucyate | yajurvedo bhavedviṣṇuḥ kulādhāro hyatharvaṇaḥ
ದೇವಿ, ನಾನೇ ಸಾಮವೇದ; ಬ್ರಹ್ಮನು ಋಗ್ವೇದವೆಂದು ಕೀರ್ತಿಸಲ್ಪಡುತ್ತಾನೆ. ವಿಷ್ಣು ಯಜುರ್ವೇದಸ್ವರೂಪ, ಅಥರ್ವಣವು ಕುಲಾಧಾರವಾದ ಪ್ರತಿಷ್ಠೆ.
Śiva
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (Somnātha)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (Pārvatī)
Scene: Śiva addresses Devī, revealing the deities as the living Vedas: Sāma as Śiva, Ṛg as Brahmā, Yajus as Viṣṇu, with Atharvan as the sustaining foundation—shown as luminous manuscripts/śruti-ripples emanating from the Trimūrti.
Vedic revelation is unified: different Vedas can be contemplated as expressions of the same divine reality.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra, whose māhātmya frames pilgrimage as grounded in Vedic-Puranic unity.
None directly; the verse supports Veda-smaraṇa (remembrance of Vedic sanctity) as devotional orientation.
