Transliteration

śravaṇādīni paṃcaiva nakṣatrāṇi pṛthakpṛthak | tava pūjākṛte paṃca kratutulyāni tāni ca | bhaviṣyaṃti na saṃdehaḥ sarvatīrthamayāni ca

Translation

Lima nakṣatra bermula dengan Śravaṇa—masing-masing berbeza—apabila dipelihara untuk pemujaanmu, akan setara dengan lima korban suci Veda. Tanpa ragu, semuanya akan merangkum pahala semua tīrtha (tempat suci).

FAQs

Time sanctified through devotion (nakṣatra observance) can yield sacrifice-like merit and the fruit of many pilgrimages.

No single tīrtha is named; the verse claims the observance becomes ‘sarva-tīrtha-maya’—containing the merit of all tīrthas.

Performing worship aligned with five nakṣatras beginning with Śravaṇa, treating each observance as a distinct devotional act.
