तत्र कृत्योद्भवो यज्ञे मुनेस्तस्य तपोबलात् । मदोनाम महावीर्यो महाकायो महासुरः
tatra kṛtyodbhavo yajñe munestasya tapobalāt | madonāma mahāvīryo mahākāyo mahāsuraḥ
Tại lễ tế ấy, do sức khổ hạnh của vị hiền triết, một hữu thể sinh từ kṛtyā hiện ra: đại dũng sĩ, đại thân, đại asura, tên là Mada.
Īśvara (Śiva)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Purāṇic audience within the māhātmya frame
Scene: From the yajña flames and smoke, a colossal asura-form condenses—Mada—muscular, towering, eyes like embers; priests recoil; Cyavana stands firm, the firelight casting long shadows across the sacrificial ground.
Tapas generates immense potency; when joined to wrathful intent it can externalize as formidable destructive forces.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra, depicted as a place where sacrificial acts and austerities bear extraordinary results.
No prescription; it narrates the consequence of ritual action (kṛtyodbhava) within a yajña.
