Prabhāsa-kṣetra: Circuit of Tīrthas and Shrines Leading to Bhukti and Mokṣa
त्रैपुरं च त्रिलिंगं तु प्रार्च्य पापैः प्रमुच्यते । षंडतीर्थं ततः प्राप्य स्नात्वा स्वर्णप्रदो नरः ॥ ५४ ॥
traipuraṃ ca triliṃgaṃ tu prārcya pāpaiḥ pramucyate | ṣaṃḍatīrthaṃ tataḥ prāpya snātvā svarṇaprado naraḥ || 54 ||
Dengan memuja Traipura dan Triliṅga dengan penuh bhakti, seseorang terbebas dari dosa. Lalu setelah mencapai Ṣaṇḍatīrtha dan mandi di sana, ia menjadi ‘pemberi emas’—berkecukupan dan berdaya untuk berdāna.

Ritual practice (kalpa-oriented conduct) is implied: proper worship (arcana) and prescribed bathing (snāna-vidhi) at tīrthas, culminating in dāna as a dharmic outcome.
