धनुषां सप्तके देवि नातिदूरे व्यवस्थितम् । स्थापितं तन्महालिंगं वसूनामष्टमेन हि
dhanuṣāṃ saptake devi nātidūre vyavasthitam | sthāpitaṃ tanmahāliṃgaṃ vasūnāmaṣṭamena hi
اے دیوی! یہ زیادہ دور نہیں، سات کمانوں کے فاصلے پر قائم ہے۔ وہ عظیم لِنگ درحقیقت وَسُوؤں میں سے آٹھویں نے ہی پرتیِشٹھت کیا تھا۔
Śiva (Īśvara)
Tirtha: Prabhāseśvara
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (Pārvatī)
Scene: A close-by coastal shrine is indicated with a traditional distance measure; the narrative highlights a radiant mahāliṅga installed by a Vasu, suggesting celestial presence around the sanctum.
The sanctity of a kṣetra is reinforced through divine/ancient consecration narratives and precise sacred topography.
Prabhāseśvara’s mahā-liṅga in Prabhāsa-kṣetra.
No direct prescription; it states the consecration (sthāpana) of the liṅga by the eighth Vasu.
