श्रुत्वा स्तोत्रमिदं देवि विष्णुः कमललोचनः । उवाच देवान्ब्रह्माद्यान्क्षीरोदार्णव बोधितः
śrutvā stotramidaṃ devi viṣṇuḥ kamalalocanaḥ | uvāca devānbrahmādyānkṣīrodārṇava bodhitaḥ
Wahai Dewi, setelah mendengar kidung pujian ini, Viṣṇu bermata teratai—yang terjaga di Samudra Susu—berkata kepada para dewa, bermula dengan Brahmā.
Narrator (contextual Purāṇic narration within Prabhāsakṣetramāhātmya)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (narrative frame)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (explicitly addressed)
Scene: Lotus-eyed Viṣṇu awakens in the Milk Ocean after hearing a hymn; he addresses Brahmā and the assembled gods.
Sincere praise (stotra) invokes divine response—Viṣṇu rises to restore dharma and protect the righteous.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra is the setting; the episode leads into the Daityasūdana association at Prabhāsa.
None directly; the verse emphasizes the power of stotra (devotional hymn).
