श्रीभगवानुवाच । नमस्ते देवदेवेशि नमस्ते भक्तिवल्लभे । सर्वगे सर्वदे देवि नमस्ते विश्वधारिणि
śrībhagavānuvāca | namaste devadeveśi namaste bhaktivallabhe | sarvage sarvade devi namaste viśvadhāriṇi
श्रीभगवान म्हणाले—हे देवदेवेशी, तुला नमस्कार; हे भक्तिवल्लभे, तुला नमस्कार। हे सर्वत्र संचारिणी, सर्व वर देणाऱ्या देवि, विश्वधारिणी—तुला नमस्कार।
Śiva (Śrī Bhagavān)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (Śakti)
Scene: Śiva speaks a hymn of homage to the Goddess: a calm, reverent tableau with Devī radiant, embodying omnipresence and universal support.
Devotion (bhakti) is honored as the direct way to the Goddess who sustains and blesses all beings.
No single tīrtha is specified in this verse; it is a universal hymn within the Tīrthamāhātmya narrative frame.
Implicitly, it models stuti (praise) and namaskāra (salutation) as devotional practice, but no formal rite is prescribed.
