ततो देवैश्च मुनिभिः संस्तुतः परमेश्वरः । प्रविवेश शुभां वेदीं मूर्तिमज्ज्वलनाश्रिताम्
tato devaiśca munibhiḥ saṃstutaḥ parameśvaraḥ | praviveśa śubhāṃ vedīṃ mūrtimajjvalanāśritām
Bấy giờ, Đấng Parameśvara được chư thiên và các hiền thánh tán dương, bước vào đàn tế cát tường, an vị trong ngọn lửa thiêng hiển hiện thành thân tướng rực sáng.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating
Tirtha: Śubha-vedī (ritual altar as sacral locus)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Gods and sages praise Parameśvara; Śiva, serene and radiant, steps into an auspicious altar where the sacred fire appears as a luminous embodied form, flames shaped like a divine figure.
The divine is present within sacred rite: the altar and fire become a living locus of Parameśvara’s auspiciousness.
No pilgrimage site is specified; the “śubhā vedi” functions as the sanctified ritual space within the narrative.
Entry into the vedi and association with the sacred fire indicates the centrality of Agni and the altar in solemn rites, including vivāha.
