ついで聖なる渡し場パンチャナダ(Pañcanada)に赴き、行いを律し、食を慎む者は、経典が順序立てて説く「五大供犠(五大祭)」の功徳を得る。ここでは、清浄・知足などの諸戒と節度ある生活こそが、巡礼を単なる身体の移動ではなく、法(ダルマ)にかなう実りある行として成り立たせると示される。

Educational Q&A

Pilgrimage yields its full spiritual and ethical fruit when joined to disciplined living—purity, contentment, and regulated conduct—so that one gains the merit associated with the five great daily duties (pañcamahāyajña) as taught in scripture.

The speaker describes the result of going to the Pañcanada sacred place while observing restraints and a regulated diet: the pilgrim is said to obtain the merit of the five great sacrifices, in the order traditionally taught.
