Educational Q&A
Disciplined observance—especially self-restraint of mind and senses and eating only once daily during the month of Śrāvaṇa—yields great religious merit comparable to extensive pilgrimage bathing, and it supports the flourishing of one’s family and kin.
Aṅgiras is describing the fruit (phala) of a specific monthly vow: spending Śrāvaṇa in regulated conduct with ekabhakta. The verse frames the practice as an accessible substitute for traveling to many tīrthas, emphasizing ethical self-control and social benefit (increase of one’s jñātis).
