وكانت تلك الغابة البهيّة مبثوثةً بأنواع الأشجار والمتسلّقات، مكسوّةً بكروم شتّى، مزهرةً مثمرةً، كأنها بستانُ «تشيتْرَرَثا» المشهور.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) narrating to the sages (contextual deduction)
Tirtha: Revā-tīra vana (Caitraratha-upamā)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A radiant forest thick with trees and creepers, every branch flowering and fruiting, with an otherworldly glow suggesting Caitraratha; pilgrims pause in awe as light filters through vines.
