सम्मुखं प्रेक्ष्य तां देवीं स्वां छायां वाक्यमब्रवीत्
sammukhaṃ prekṣya tāṃ devīṃ svāṃ chāyāṃ vākyamabravīt
دیوی نے اپنی ہی چھایا کو روبرو دیکھ کر، آمنے سامنے نگاہ ڈالتے ہوئے یہ کلمات کہے۔

Listener: Māhātmya audience
Scene: Saṃjñā stands directly before her shadow-double; the two mirror each other in posture, but differ in luminosity. Saṃjñā raises a hand as if giving instructions; Chāyā listens attentively.
It sets up the importance of instruction (śāsana) and accountability—speech that establishes duty in another.
The broader chapter belongs to the Prabhāsakṣetra Māhātmya, centered on Prabhāsa.
