Dhaumya’s Enumeration of Eastern Tīrthas
Prācī-diś Tīrtha-kathana
ततो गच्छेत धर्मज्ञ भर्त॒स्थानमनुत्तमम् । यत्र नित्यं महासेनो गुह: संनिहितो नूप
tato gacchet dharmajña bhartṛsthānam anuttamam | yatra nityaṁ mahāseno guhaḥ saṁnihito nūpam ||
Pulastya berkata: “Kemudian, wahai yang mengetahui dharma, hendaklah seseorang menuju ke kediaman Bhartṛ yang tiada bandingnya, tempat Guha yang perkasa—sentiasa hadir di sana—bersemayam tanpa henti.”
पुलस्त्य उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse frames righteous action as guided movement toward sacred places: a dharma-knower is advised to seek an exalted locus where divine presence is constant, implying that dharma is strengthened through purposeful pilgrimage and reverent orientation toward the sacred.
Pulastya continues a tirtha-guidance sequence, directing the listener (addressed as a king) to go next to the supreme ‘abode of Bhartṛ,’ characterized by the continual presence of the mighty Guha.
