tatrāpi himaviṃdhyādreraṃtaraṃ puṇyadaṃ param | gaṃgāyamunayormadhye hyaṃtarvedī bhuvaḥ parāḥ
وفيها أيضًا، إن البقعة الواقعة بين جبال الهيمالايا وجبال فيندهيا هي أسمى ما يهب الثواب والبركة. وبين نهرَي الغانغا واليامونا تقع «أنتارفيدي»، وهي أرض رفيعة القدر على ظهر الأرض.

Tirtha: Antarvedī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Naimiṣāraṇya ṛṣis (frame)
Scene: A luminous riverine landscape: Gaṅgā and Yamunā flowing like twin garlands enclosing Antarvedī; pilgrims bathing, sages teaching, and distant Himalayan and Vindhyan silhouettes framing the sacred middle land.
Certain landscapes are portrayed as spiritually charged; dwelling or pilgrimage there is said to naturally increase puṇya and support dharma.
Antarvedī—the sacred region between the Gaṅgā and Yamunā—is highlighted as exceptionally holy.
No explicit rite is stated here; it provides a location-based mahātmya that implies pilgrimage and sacred bathing in the Gaṅgā-Yamunā region.
