Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 4
अद्य मे तेजसः पिंडो जातो ज्ञानं हृदि स्थितम् । अद्य मे कुलशीलं च अद्य मे रूपलक्षणम्
adya me tejasaḥ piṃḍo jāto jñānaṃ hṛdi sthitam | adya me kulaśīlaṃ ca adya me rūpalakṣaṇam
آج میرے اندر تجلّی کا ایک گھنا پیکر پیدا ہوا، اور معرفت میرے دل میں قائم ہو گئی۔ آج میرا شریف نسب اور سیرت کامل ہوئی؛ آج میری صورت اور مبارک نشانیاں بھی تمام ہو گئیں۔
Devī (Pārvatī)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim-sage at Prabhāsa experiences a sudden inner effulgence: a halo-like tejas around the body, calm face, and a heart-lotus motif signifying established knowledge; the sacred coastal tīrtha landscape with temple silhouettes in the distance.
FAQs
True ‘auspiciousness’ is internal: tejas and jñāna established in the heart, expressed outwardly as refined conduct (śīla).
Prabhāsa-kṣetra by context, as the māhātmya being heard is said to generate this transformation.
None explicitly; the verse describes spiritual fruits rather than prescribing acts.
