श्रुत्वा स्तोत्रमिदं देवि विष्णुः कमललोचनः । उवाच देवान्ब्रह्माद्यान्क्षीरोदार्णव बोधितः
śrutvā stotramidaṃ devi viṣṇuḥ kamalalocanaḥ | uvāca devānbrahmādyānkṣīrodārṇava bodhitaḥ
اے دیوی! اس حمد کو سن کر، کمل نین وشنو—جو سمندرِ شیر میں بیدار ہوئے تھے—نے برہما سے آغاز کرتے ہوئے دیوتاؤں کو خطاب کیا۔
Narrator (contextual Purāṇic narration within Prabhāsakṣetramāhātmya)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (narrative frame)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (explicitly addressed)
Scene: Lotus-eyed Viṣṇu awakens in the Milk Ocean after hearing a hymn; he addresses Brahmā and the assembled gods.
Sincere praise (stotra) invokes divine response—Viṣṇu rises to restore dharma and protect the righteous.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra is the setting; the episode leads into the Daityasūdana association at Prabhāsa.
None directly; the verse emphasizes the power of stotra (devotional hymn).
