तं कामं प्राप्तवान्धीमान्परां मुदमुपागतः । अहल्यया समायोगमेतत्तीर्थप्रभावतः
taṃ kāmaṃ prāptavāndhīmānparāṃ mudamupāgataḥ | ahalyayā samāyogametattīrthaprabhāvataḥ
その賢者は望みを成就し、至上の歓喜に至った—まさにこのティールタの霊威によって、アハリヤー(Ahalyā)との合一を得たのである。
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) to the sages (deduced)
Tirtha: Koṭitīrtha
Type: kund
Listener: Arjuna (Phālguna)
Scene: Gautama rises from austerity as the desired reunion is granted; the tīrtha glows, and the atmosphere shifts from sorrow to supreme joy, suggesting divine sanction through the waters’ power.
The merit-force of a tīrtha (tīrtha-prabhāva) can consummate the fruit of sustained tapas.
The same Koṭitīrtha referenced earlier, praised for its extraordinary spiritual efficacy.
No explicit rite is commanded here; it emphasizes the result (phala) granted by tīrtha-prabhāva.
