Pulastya
Tirtha: Nāga-tīrtha
Type: kund
Listener: Rājā (king)
Scene: At the ghat of Nāga-tīrtha, Nāyakā arrives with her son; Gautamī assists—offering water, arranging bathing space, helping with garments/offerings—depicting quiet, practical compassion.
Pilgrimage dharma includes seva—serving fellow pilgrims and devotees is itself a meritorious religious act.
Nāga-tīrtha (the same tīrtha) where pilgrims gather and dharmic conduct is enacted.
Not a formal rite; it highlights śuśrūṣā (service) as a practical observance within tīrtha-yātrā.
