ब्रह्मोवाच । नमो रुद्राय देवाय मदनांतकराय च । भर्गाय भूरिभाग्याय त्रिनेत्राय त्रिविष्टषे
brahmovāca | namo rudrāya devāya madanāṃtakarāya ca | bhargāya bhūribhāgyāya trinetrāya triviṣṭaṣe
ବ୍ରହ୍ମା କହିଲେ—ରୁଦ୍ରଦେବଙ୍କୁ ନମସ୍କାର, ମଦନାନ୍ତକଙ୍କୁ ନମସ୍କାର। ଭର୍ଗ, ମହାସୌଭାଗ୍ୟସ୍ୱରୂପ, ତ୍ରିନେତ୍ର ଏବଂ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗେ ସ୍ତୁତ୍ୟ ପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କୁ ନମସ୍କାର।
Brahmā
Tirtha: Kedāra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śiva (Rudra/Maheśvara)
Scene: Brahmā, hands folded, stands before the radiant blue-throated Lord, invoking him as Rudra, Kāmāntaka, Bharga, and Trinetra; the atmosphere is charged with ascetic fire and auspicious brilliance.
Śiva is the conqueror of desire (Madana) and the radiant auspicious reality praised by all worlds—devotion to him purifies intention.
Kedāra is the narrative setting for Brahmā’s hymn, reinforcing the tīrtha’s status as a place of Śiva’s manifest greatness.
Stuti (praise) and nāma-smaraṇa (recitation of epithets like Rudra, Madanāntaka, Trinetra) are implied.
