Śrī Mārkaṇḍeya (narrating to the king)
Tirtha: Haṃseśvara
Type: kshetra
Listener: Yudhiṣṭhira
Scene: A serene Śiva-liṅga shrine named Haṃseśvara near a tīrtha setting; a luminous swan (Haṃsa) associated with Kaśyapa’s lineage appears as a sacred witness, suggesting the removal of inner discord.
A tīrtha is praised not only for external merit but also for inner healing—removing vaimanasyā (mental disharmony) through sacred contact.
Haṃseśvara tīrtha on the Revā pilgrimage circuit.
No explicit rite; the verse identifies the tīrtha’s name, virtue, and mythic association to ground later prescriptions.
