FAQs
Pilgrimage and remembrance of sacred cities and realms are presented as dharmic supports, connecting earthly tīrthas with cosmic order.
Tīrthas in general and the Saptapurī (seven sacred cities) are invoked; the verse serves as an index rather than naming one single site.
No explicit prescription; the implied practice is tīrtha-smaraṇa and tīrtha-yātrā (recollection and pilgrimage).
