स्वयंभूः प्रथमे नाम द्वितीये पद्मभूः स्मृतः । तृतीये विश्वकर्त्तेति बालरूपी तुरीयके
svayaṃbhūḥ prathame nāma dvitīye padmabhūḥ smṛtaḥ | tṛtīye viśvakartteti bālarūpī turīyake
No primeiro kalpa, meu nome é Svayaṃbhū; no segundo, sou lembrado como Padmabhū; no terceiro, como Viśvakartṛ; e no quarto, como Bālarūpī.
Soma (Candra)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A cosmic tableau: Brahmā’s fourfold naming across successive kalpas shown as four vignettes around a central Prabhāsa liṅga, with time-wheels and lotus imagery.
Across cosmic cycles, the same sacred reality is approached through different names and aspects—supporting inclusive, time-spanning Purāṇic dharma.
Implicitly Prabhāsa-kṣetra, where the ‘Bālarūpī’ identity is emphasized in this chapter’s context.
None; the verse provides a doctrinal list of names across kalpas.
