पित्ःणामक्षया तृप्तिर्यावदाभूतसम्प्लवम् । पित्ःणां परमं गुह्यं रेवातटसमाश्रितम् । मोक्षदं सर्वजन्तूनां निर्मितं मुनिसत्तमैः
pitḥṇāmakṣayā tṛptiryāvadābhūtasamplavam | pitḥṇāṃ paramaṃ guhyaṃ revātaṭasamāśritam | mokṣadaṃ sarvajantūnāṃ nirmitaṃ munisattamaiḥ
പിതൃകൾക്കു അക്ഷയ തൃപ്തി ലഭിക്കുന്നു; അത് മഹാപ്രളയം വരെ നിലനിൽക്കും. ഇത് പിതൃകളുടെ പരമ ഗുഹ്യം, റേവാ-തടാശ്രിതം; സർവ്വജീവികൾക്കും മോക്ഷദായകം, മുനിശ്രേഷ്ഠർ സ്ഥാപിച്ചതാണ്.

Tirtha: Pitṛ-guhya Revā-taṭa tīrtha (name not explicitly given in this verse)
Type: ghat
Listener: Yudhiṣṭhira
Scene: A luminous Revā riverbank tīrtha revealed as a ‘supreme secret’; ancestral realm subtly indicated (pitṛs receiving offerings); great sages consecrate the place; a radiance suggesting mokṣa spreads over beings.
Service to ancestors at a divinely empowered tīrtha yields enduring fruit and aligns pitṛ-dharma with the pursuit of mokṣa.
A ‘supreme secret’ pitṛ-associated tīrtha on the bank of the Revā (Narmadā), within the Koṭīśvara context.
The verse underscores the fruit of pitṛ-rites (tarpaṇa/piṇḍa-dāna) performed at the Revā-bank sacred spot—granting akṣaya satisfaction to Pitṛs and mokṣa-oriented merit.
