The Manifestation and Sanctifying Power of the Mathurā Tīrtha
समारोहति वै नित्यं प्रभामण्डलमण्डितम् ॥ ये देवा ये च गन्धर्वाः सिद्धाश्चारणपन्नगाः ॥
samārohati vai nityaṃ prabhāmaṇḍalamaṇḍitam || ye devā ye ca gandharvāḥ siddhāś cāraṇapannagāḥ ||
वहाँ जाते रहना, चमक चमकता रहना। वहाँ देवता होते हैं, गंधर्व होते हैं। सिद्ध होते हैं, चरण होते हैं, नाग भी वहाँ होते हैं।
