FAQs

Reverence at a great tīrtha is equated with vast spiritual merit, even comparable to the fruit of many yajñas.

The Gomati tīra (bank of the Gomati River) at Dvārakā is directly glorified.

Offering salutations and approaching the Gomati tīrtha in a celebratory, devotional procession is implied.
