ज्ञात्वा कलियुगं घोरं हाहाभूतमचेतनम् । नियुक्तस्तत्र देवेशि रक्षार्थं विघ्ननायकः
jñātvā kaliyugaṃ ghoraṃ hāhābhūtamacetanam | niyuktastatra deveśi rakṣārthaṃ vighnanāyakaḥ
Biết rõ thời Kali đáng sợ, khi con người mê loạn và kêu than trong khổ não, ôi Devī, Vighnanāyaka đã được cử đến đó để hộ trì bảo vệ.
Skanda (deduced from Prabhāsa-khaṇḍa māhātmya dialogue context)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (addressed as Deveśi)
Scene: In the coastal Prabhāsa-kṣetra, Devī is addressed while Vighnanāyaka is installed as a vigilant guardian against Kali-yuga’s confusion and distress.
In Kali-yuga, divine guardianship is emphasized—Vighnanāyaka is established to protect dharma and the sanctity of the kṣetra.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra is implied as the protected sacred region where Vighnanāyaka is stationed.
None explicitly; the verse provides theological context for invoking Vighnanāyaka as protector in Kali-yuga.
