ममांशसंभवा ये च अस्मिन्क्षेत्रे समुद्भवाः । तेषां तु विदितं लिंगं पूर्वकल्पे तु भैरवम्
mamāṃśasaṃbhavā ye ca asminkṣetre samudbhavāḥ | teṣāṃ tu viditaṃ liṃgaṃ pūrvakalpe tu bhairavam
Aqueles que surgem nesta região sagrada como emanações da minha própria porção—para eles este Liṅga é conhecido, pois em um kalpa anterior foi revelado como Bhairava.
Śiva
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Pārvatī (continued address context)
Scene: Pilgrims native to Prabhāsa are shown with an innate reverence; behind the Somēśa Liṅga, a shadowy, protective Bhairava form appears as a prior-kalpa revelation.
Spiritual affinity and past merit shape recognition of a tīrtha’s inner truth; those aligned with Śiva grasp the Liṅga’s mystery.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra and its Liṅga (Somēśa/Somnātha), linked to the Bhairava manifestation in a prior kalpa.
No ritual act is prescribed; the verse highlights lineage/affinity (aṃśa) and prior-kalpa revelation.
