दक्षिणे सागरस्तद्वद्भद्रा नद्युत्तरे मता । एवं सीमासमायुक्तं क्षेत्रं द्वादशयोजनम्
dakṣiṇe sāgarastadvadbhadrā nadyuttare matā | evaṃ sīmāsamāyuktaṃ kṣetraṃ dvādaśayojanam
దక్షిణమున సముద్రము, అలాగే ఉత్తరమున భద్రా నది సీమగా భావింపబడుతుంది. ఈ విధంగా సీమలతో యుక్తమైన ఈ క్షేత్రము ద్వాదశ యోజనములు విస్తరించింది.
Skanda (deduced from Prabhāsakṣetramāhātmya narrative style)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (sāgara–Bhadrā boundary)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī
Scene: A wide sacred map: the kṣetra shown as a band of land with the ocean to the south (waves, horizon) and a river to the north (flowing line), with a caption ‘dvādaśa-yojana’ indicating the total extent.
Pilgrimage in Purāṇic dharma is anchored in sacred geography; knowing the kṣetra’s limits supports disciplined, intentional worship.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra, measured and bounded by the ocean to the south and the Bhadrā river to the north.
No direct prescription; the verse provides the kṣetra’s extent (dvādaśa-yojana) for pilgrimage planning and kṣetra-understanding.
