Bhīṣma
Tirtha: Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Dhṛtarāṣṭra (addressed as ‘vatsa’)
Scene: Bhīṣma speaks with quiet conviction, gesturing toward the Hāṭakeśvara shrine; the air feels purified, as if sins are being burned away by unseen fire of grace.
Faith in tīrtha is strengthened by testimony: a revered elder affirms that the Śaiva kṣetra has the power to destroy sin.
Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra, the sacred field of Lord Hāṭakeśvara.
No explicit ritual is given in this verse; it states the kṣetra’s sin-destroying greatness.
