ज्येष्ठं तु दशमं साम वेधसे प्रियमुत्तमम् । एतेषां देवि साम्नां वै जाप्यं कार्यं विधानतः
jyeṣṭhaṃ tu daśamaṃ sāma vedhase priyamuttamam | eteṣāṃ devi sāmnāṃ vai jāpyaṃ kāryaṃ vidhānataḥ
Còn bài Sāman thứ mười được gọi là “Jyeṣṭha”, tối thượng, tuyệt diệu và được Đấng Tạo Hóa (Vedhas) yêu quý. Hỡi Nữ Thần, việc trì tụng (japa) các bài Sāman này quả nên thực hành đúng theo nghi pháp.
Skanda (deduced)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (addressed as devi)
Scene: The tenth chant ‘Jyeṣṭha’ is honored like a crown atop a sequence; the teacher gestures toward a ritual layout where a practitioner begins japa with a mala, facing a shrine; ‘Vedhas’ (Creator) is symbolically evoked by a lotus-born presence in the background.
Even exalted mantras yield their full fruit when practiced with vidhāna—reverent discipline and correct method.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra is the overarching setting of this Māhātmya teaching.
Perform japa of the specified Sāman set—especially the ‘Jyeṣṭha’—strictly according to prescribed procedure.
