प्रभासाद्यानि तीर्थानि पुलस्त्यायाह पद्मभूः । न यैस्तत्राप्लुतं चैव किं तैस्तीर्थमुपासितम्
prabhāsādyāni tīrthāni pulastyāyāha padmabhūḥ | na yaistatrāplutaṃ caiva kiṃ taistīrthamupāsitam
ପଦ୍ମଭୂ ବ୍ରହ୍ମା ପୁଲସ୍ତ୍ୟଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ—ପ୍ରଭାସ ଆଦି ତୀର୍ଥ ଅତି ପବିତ୍ର; ଯେମାନେ ସେଠାରେ ସ୍ନାନ କରିନାହାନ୍ତି, ସେମାନେ ଅନ୍ୟ ତୀର୍ଥ ଉପାସନା କରି କ’ଣ ଲାଭ କଲେ?
Nārada (quoting Brahmā’s statement to Pulastya)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa
Type: kshetra
Listener: Pulastya
Scene: Brahmā (Padmabhū) instructs Pulastya, pointing toward a sacred map of tīrthas with Prabhāsa shining foremost; the verse framed like a proclamation that bathing is the decisive act.
Certain tīrthas are portrayed as spiritually foundational; bathing there is praised as a decisive purifier within purāṇic dharma.
Prabhāsa tīrtha (the Prabhāsa-kṣetra region, closely linked with Somanātha).
Snāna (ritual bathing/immersion) at Prabhāsa is implied as essential for fully realizing tīrtha merit.
