Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 22
भूतधात्रि नमस्तेऽस्तु शिवायै च नमोऽस्तु ते । रागिण्यै च विरागिण्यै विकराले नमः शुभे
bhūtadhātri namaste'stu śivāyai ca namo'stu te | rāgiṇyai ca virāgiṇyai vikarāle namaḥ śubhe
اے بھوت دھاتری، تجھے نمسکار ہو؛ اور شِوا کے روپ میں بھی تجھے نمسکار۔ تجھے نمسکار کہ تو رغبت والی بھی ہے اور ویراغ والی بھی؛ اے ہیبت ناک، نمسکار—اے مبارک، نمسکار۔
Viṣṇu
Tirtha: Devī of Phalavelā (Śivā)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A devotee prostrates before Devī who appears half-auspicious, half-fierce: one side gentle with lotus and boon-giving hand, the other side with fierce eyes and weapons; yet the overall aura is benevolent.
FAQs
