जनानां दुष्कृतं सर्वं क्षेत्रमध्ये व्यवस्थितः । भैरवं रूपमास्थाय नाशयामि सुरेश्वरि
janānāṃ duṣkṛtaṃ sarvaṃ kṣetramadhye vyavasthitaḥ | bhairavaṃ rūpamāsthāya nāśayāmi sureśvari
اس مقدس کھیتر کے عین بیچ میں قائم ہو کر، میں بھیرَو کا روپ دھار کر لوگوں کے تمام بداعمالیوں کو مٹا دیتا ہوں، اے دیوتاؤں کی ملکہ۔
Śiva (speaking in first person as Bhairava at Prabhāsa)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (Bhairava-kṣetrapāla)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Sureśvarī (Queen of the Gods)
Scene: Bhairava stands at the heart of Prabhāsa, trident raised in a protective gesture; shadowy forms labeled ‘dushkṛta’ crumble into dust around pilgrims, while a goddess-like figure (Sureśvarī) listens to his vow.
Divine protection within a holy kṣetra is active: Bhairava, as kṣetrapāla, removes devotees’ wrongdoing through sacred presence.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra, described as the ‘field’ whose center is guarded by Bhairava.
No specific ritual is named; the verse supports Bhairava-upāsanā and faith in the kṣetra’s purifying power.
