BrahmāFAQs
When dharma is established and the kṣetra is honored, the gods bestow approval and depart—signifying completion and auspiciousness.
Dharmāraṇya as a deva-visited sacred region is implicitly celebrated.
No direct ritual; it narrates the deities’ departure after the sacred acts are concluded.
