FAQs

Admitting fault and explaining causes before a sage is part of purification; dharma is clarified through truthful narration and accountability.

The scene remains within a tīrtha setting near sacred waters; the verse prepares the tīrtha-linked backstory rather than naming the site.

No formal ritual; it implies confession/truthful disclosure before a sage as a dharmic corrective.
