गोप्रतारे कृतं स्नानं सर्वपापप्रणाशनम् । गोप्रतारे नरः स्नात्वा दृष्ट्वा गुप्तहरिं विभुम् । सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्येत नात्र कार्या विचारणा
gopratāre kṛtaṃ snānaṃ sarvapāpapraṇāśanam | gopratāre naraḥ snātvā dṛṣṭvā guptahariṃ vibhum | sarvapāpaiḥ pramucyeta nātra kāryā vicāraṇā
Le bain accompli à Gopratāra détruit tous les péchés. Celui qui s’y baigne et y contemple le majestueux «Gupta-Hari» est délivré de toute faute—ici, nul besoin de doute ni d’hésitation.

Tirtha: Gopratāra
Type: ghat
Scene: Pilgrims descend stone steps to a river-ghāṭa at dawn; a small sanctum nearby holds the mysterious ‘Gupta-Hari’ icon, partially veiled, radiating quiet majesty; water ripples reflect lamp-light and saffron cloth.
Tīrtha-snānā combined with the Lord’s darśana is presented as a complete means for purification and release from sin.
Gopratāra Tīrtha in Ayodhyā, along with the darśana of Gupta-Hari.
Bathe at Gopratāra and then take darśana of Gupta-Hari (Viṣṇu) for total sin-destruction.
