भवन्तोऽभ्यागता यत्र महीसागरसंगमः । स्नानं दानं जपो होमः पिंडदानं विशेषतः
bhavanto'bhyāgatā yatra mahīsāgarasaṃgamaḥ | snānaṃ dānaṃ japo homaḥ piṃḍadānaṃ viśeṣataḥ
तुम्ही जिथे आला आहात तोच मही-नदी व सागर यांचा संगम आहे. येथे स्नान, दान, जप, होम आणि विशेषतः पिंडदान याचे विधान आहे.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced for Māheśvara-khaṇḍa narration)
Tirtha: Mahī–Sāgara Saṅgama
Type: sangam
Scene: On the shore where river meets sea, pilgrims bathe, priests guide dāna and japa, a small homa-kunda burns, and families offer piṇḍas with kuśa grass and sesame, facing the waters.
At a sacred confluence, ordinary rites become especially potent; devotion expressed through snāna, dāna, and ancestral offerings is praised.
The Mahī–Sāgara Saṅgama—the confluence where the Mahī River meets the ocean.
Snāna (bathing), dāna (charity), japa, homa, and particularly piṇḍa-dāna for the ancestors.
