स कदाचिन्नृपश्रेष्ठो विचरंस्तत्र संस्थितः । गतवान्मानसं दिव्यं सरो देवगणान्वितम्
sa kadācinnṛpaśreṣṭho vicaraṃstatra saṃsthitaḥ | gatavānmānasaṃ divyaṃ saro devagaṇānvitam
Pada suatu ketika, raja yang paling utama itu, ketika mengembara dan singgah di sana, telah sampai ke tasik suci lagi ilahi Mānasasaras, diiringi rombongan para dewa.
Īśvara (Śiva)
Tirtha: Mānasa-sarovara
Type: kund
Listener: Devī (Pārvatī)
Scene: The king’s vimāna descends near the crystal-blue expanse of Mānasa-sarovara; devas gather along lotus-filled shores, with distant snow peaks and a sense of unearthly stillness.
Sacred spaces are portrayed as living realms where divine beings gather; entering such places demands reverence and disciplined conduct.
Mānasasaras (the divine lake) is explicitly mentioned as the sacred setting.
None directly; the verse establishes the tīrtha setting for subsequent events.
