निष्कलं विमलं देवं देवदेवं सुरात्मकम् । हेतुप्रमाणरहितं कल्पनाभाववर्जितम्
niṣkalaṃ vimalaṃ devaṃ devadevaṃ surātmakam | hetupramāṇarahitaṃ kalpanābhāvavarjitam
ಆ ದೇವನು ನಿಷ್ಕಲನೂ ವಿಮಲನೂ—ದೇವದೇವ, ಸುರಾತ್ಮಕ. ಕಾರಣ-ಪ್ರಮಾಣಗಳಿಗೆ ಅತೀತನು; ಕಲ್ಪನಾ-ಭಾವವರ್ಜಿತನು.

Prabhāsa kṣetra by the ongoing Prabhāsakṣetra-māhātmya context.
None; the verse provides theological description rather than ritual instruction.
