Kapālamocana-tīrtha (Auśanasa) and Balarāma’s Sarasvatī Pilgrimage
एकी भूतास्ततस्तास्तु तस्मिंस्तीर्थे समागता:
ekībhūtās tatās tāstu tasmiṃs tīrthe samāgatāḥ
Waiśampāyana berkata: Lalu mereka, setelah menyatu menjadi satu, berkumpul di tīrtha itu.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
The verse highlights the moral and emotional power of unity: in moments of crisis and transition, people find strength by acting together and approaching sacred spaces with a shared intention.
The narrator states that the women (implied by the feminine plural) come together in unity and assemble at a particular tīrtha, indicating a collective movement toward a sacred place for rites, mourning, or counsel in the war’s aftermath.
