यस्त्वेकं भोजयेद्विप्रं द्वारकायां च संस्थितम् । सुभिक्षे भो द्विजश्रेष्ठाः फलं लक्षगुणं भवेत्
yastvekaṃ bhojayedvipraṃ dvārakāyāṃ ca saṃsthitam | subhikṣe bho dvijaśreṣṭhāḥ phalaṃ lakṣaguṇaṃ bhavet
しかし、ドヴァーラカーに住まうバラモンをたとえ一人でも供養して食を施す者は――おお、二度生まれの最勝者よ――豊穣の時において、その功徳の果は十万倍となる。
Śrī Prahlāda (continuation of discourse)
Tirtha: Dvārakā
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim-donor offers a simple but respectful meal to a single Brāhmaṇa resident of Dvārakā; behind them, a bustling anna-kṣetra with orderly service; a subtle aura indicates ‘lakṣa-guṇa’ merit multiplication.
Service and hospitality offered in a supremely sacred place like Dvārakā are said to multiply merit enormously.
Dvārakā, as the meritorious setting where dāna and service gain exceptional potency.
Bhojana/anna-dāna: feeding a Brāhmaṇa residing in Dvārakā, especially noted during times of abundance.
