The Sacred Merit of Goniṣkramaṇa
the Tīrtha of the Cows’ Emergence/Release
यज्ञानां वाजपेयानां फलं प्राप्नोति मानवः ॥ अथात्र मुञ्चते प्राणान्मम कर्मसु निष्ठितः ॥
yajñānāṃ vājapeyānāṃ phalaṃ prāpnoti mānavaḥ || athātra muñcate prāṇān mama karmasu niṣṭhitaḥ ||
वाजपेय यज्ञ का फल मिलता है। फिर जब वक्त आता है, इंसान अपनी प्राणे छोड़ देता है। वो मेरे काम में लगा रहता है।
