स्थापयामास देवेशो लिंगमप्रतिमौजसम् । तस्मिन्स्नात्वा च लभते यस्मादिन्द्रपदं नरः
sthāpayāmāsa deveśo liṃgamapratimaujasam | tasminsnātvā ca labhate yasmādindrapadaṃ naraḥ
دیوتاؤں کے سردار نے بے مثال قوت والا لِنگ قائم کیا؛ وہاں اشنان کرنے سے انسان اندر کے مرتبے کو پا لیتا ہے۔
Prahlāda (continuing narration)
Tirtha: Indrapada (snāna-tīrtha) / Indreśvara (liṅga)
Type: ghat
Scene: Indra, radiant and regal, installs a powerful liṅga beside a gleaming sacred tank; pilgrims bathe at the steps, then approach the liṅga with offerings; the air feels charged with divine potency.
Snāna at a divinely founded tīrtha and reverence to the liṅga are said to elevate one toward heavenly merit and divine status.
Indrapada tīrtha associated with an exceptionally potent Śiva-liṅga (later known as Indreśvara).
Tīrtha-snāna (bathing) at that place, in connection with the liṅga established by Indra.
