ततः कालेन महता ते सर्वे मुनिपुंगवाः । ध्यानात्त्रिलोचनस्यैव अदृष्टे तु महेश्वरे
tataḥ kālena mahatā te sarve munipuṃgavāḥ | dhyānāttrilocanasyaiva adṛṣṭe tu maheśvare
ତତଃ ବହୁ କାଳ ପରେ ସେ ସମସ୍ତ ମୁନିଶ୍ରେଷ୍ଠ—ମହେଶ୍ୱର ଯଦିଓ ପ୍ରତ୍ୟକ୍ଷ ହୋଇନଥିଲେ—କେବଳ ତ୍ରିଲୋଚନ ପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଧ୍ୟାନରେ ଅଦ୍ଭୁତ ଅବସ୍ଥାକୁ ପ୍ରାପ୍ତ ହେଲେ।

Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and the Naimiṣāraṇya sages (typical frame)
Scene: A circle of aged sages seated in deep meditation within the sandy-coastal sacred landscape of Prabhāsa; Śiva not yet visible, but an unseen radiance suggests Trilocana’s presence.
Even without immediate divine vision, steadfast meditation on Śiva matures and yields spiritual transformation.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra, where the sages persevere in dhyāna awaiting Śiva’s grace.
Dhyāna (meditation) upon Trilocana/Śiva as a sustained practice.
