Nachdem die Göttin so gesprochen hatte, verschwand sie am Ende des Traumes vor den Augen jener großen Weisen und ging ein in ihre eigene wässrige Natur.
Narrator (Purāṇic narrator in Revākhaṇḍa context)
Tirtha: Revā (Narmadā)
Type: river
Scene: The scene shifts like a dream ending: the Devī’s luminous form fades; she steps backward and dissolves into the river, becoming one with the water as sages reach out in astonished silence.
FAQs
The Divine can reveal itself through dream-vision and then withdraw, reminding devotees that sacred presence pervades even when unseen.
Revā/Narmadā is presented as a living Devī whose essence is the sacred river itself.
None directly; the verse supports faith in darśana (vision) and reverence toward the river as Devī.
