divyagandhānuliptāṃgo divyābharaṇabhūṣitaḥ | saṃsthitaḥ pūrvatastasya dīpyamānaḥ svatejasā
Pinahiran ng samyo ng langit at pinalamutian ng banal na alahas, siya’y tumindig sa silangan ng dambanang iyon, nagliliwanag sa sariling likas na ningning.

Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis (Naimiṣāraṇya assembly)
Scene: At a radiant shrine in Prabhāsa, a divine personage stands to the east, body anointed with celestial perfumes, ornamented with divine jewelry, emitting self-born brilliance that illuminates the precinct.
Divine presence is self-luminous; purity (fragrance) and sacred adornment signify inner radiance manifesting in a tīrtha.
Prabhāsakṣetra, focusing on the sacred precinct around Śaṅkara’s temple.
Anointing with fragrant substances and adorning with ornaments—standard elements of pūjā and divine honour (upacāra).
