Nārada (in the Ekādaśī/Dvādaśī observance discourse)
Tirtha: Dvārakā
Type: kshetra
Listener: Naimiṣāraṇya sages (frame implied)
Scene: A stark moral vision: a pilgrim choosing the ‘viddha’ day is shown surrounded by symbols of illness and sorrow, while in the distance a luminous temple of Murāri represents the correct path; Nārada’s warning gesture frames the contrast.
