द्रुपदाख्यश्च यो मन्त्रो वेदे वाजसनेयके । अन्तर्जले सकृज्जप्तः सर्वपापक्षयंकरः
drupadākhyaśca yo mantro vede vājasaneyake | antarjale sakṛjjaptaḥ sarvapāpakṣayaṃkaraḥ
ذلك المانترا المعروف باسم «Drupada» في فاجاسانيي فيدا، إذا تُلي مرة واحدة ولو أثناء الوقوف في الماء، كان سببًا لفناء جميع الخطايا.
Skanda (deduced from the prescriptive catalog of mantras/rites in Revā Khaṇḍa)
Tirtha: Revā (Narmadā) — antar-jala mantra-japa
Type: ghat
Scene: A devotee stands midstream, water swirling around, hands joined in japa posture; luminous syllables rise like light from the mouth/heart as the ‘Drupada’ mantra is uttered once, and shadowy impurities dissolve into the current.
Vedic mantra-japa joined with sacred water practice is portrayed as a powerful purifier.
The Revā/Narmadā milieu is implied through the instruction to recite while in water, consistent with Revā Khaṇḍa.
Recite the ‘Drupada’ mantra (Vājasaneyi Veda) once while immersed/standing in water.
