देवा ऊचुः । हाटकेश्वरजे क्षेत्रे पादुके तत्र संस्थिते । अंबाया मातृभिः सार्धं गुहामध्ये सुगुप्तके
devā ūcuḥ | hāṭakeśvaraje kṣetre pāduke tatra saṃsthite | aṃbāyā mātṛbhiḥ sārdhaṃ guhāmadhye suguptake
Chư thiên thưa: “Trong thánh địa của Hāṭakeśvara, có đôi Pādukā được an lập tại đó. Ambā, cùng với các Mẫu Thần (Mātṛ), ngự trong một hang động giữa lòng núi, kín đáo được che giấu.”
Devas
Tirtha: Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra Pādukā-guha
Type: cave
Listener: Maheśvara (Śiva)
Scene: A map-like reveal: the devas describe a sacred region where, deep inside a concealed cave, Ambā and the Mātṛkās abide, marked by a pair of Pādukās—simple yet radiating power.
Divinity is present in specific sacred landscapes; the Goddess (Ambā) and the Mātṛkās abide in sanctified, protected spaces worthy of reverent approach.
Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra, specifically the Pādukā site associated with Ambā and the Mātṛkās in a hidden cave.
No explicit rite is prescribed here; the verse identifies the locus of worship: the Pādukā shrine of Ambā with the Mothers.
