FAQs
A mountain is praised as the foremost of all mountains—an enduring divine abode, elevated in status and beauty, and described as adorned by sacrificial (yajña) glory.
It suggests that the place is sanctified and “ornamented” by yajñas—either because sacrifices are performed there, or because it bears the auspicious merit and radiance associated with ritual worship.
It highlights the Purāṇic ideal that sacredness is reinforced through dharmic acts (like yajña) and devotion—transforming a place into a divine abode and making it exemplary among its peers.
