Scene: A map-like procession: Brahmāvarta grove with a small Brahmā shrine; a sun-altar at dawn; a fire-altar; then a cave mouth with a sanctified spring labeled Devatīrtha.
Even varied natural settings—like cave-sheltered shrines—are integrated into dharma as sacred stations worthy of praise and remembrance.
Devatīrtha (guhāśraya, cave-sheltered) is highlighted among Brahmāvarta, Saura, Meghanāda, and Dāru Tīrtha.
No explicit rite is stated; the emphasis is on kīrtana (proclamation) of the tīrthas’ names and their sanctity.
