पूजाविधानं विस्तीर्य तन्मे निगदतः शृणु । आसीदस्मिन्कृते देवि सर्व ज्ञानविशारदः
pūjāvidhānaṃ vistīrya tanme nigadataḥ śṛṇu | āsīdasminkṛte devi sarva jñānaviśāradaḥ
Hãy lắng nghe khi Ta trình bày tường tận nghi thức thờ phụng. Trong thời đại Kṛta, hỡi Devī, có một người tinh thông mọi loại tri thức.

Tīrtha-māhātmya includes both story and practice—right worship method (vidhi) supports right spiritual result.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra, as the context for the worship procedure being explained.
