Skanda
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Mahādevī
Scene: A litany of names is pronounced; visually, sixteen feminine archetypes appear as subtle halos or attendants around a central lunar motif, each embodying her name’s quality (peaceful, radiant, fierce, auspicious).
Remembering and reciting sacred names is a purāṇic mode of devotion, supporting smaraṇa and bhakti.
The list appears within the Prabhāsa-kṣetra Māhātmya narrative frame, though the verse itself is a name-catalog.
No explicit ritual; the implied practice is nāma-smaraṇa (remembrance/recitation of names).
