FAQs

Dharma requires honoring the worthy; ritual efficacy is tied to proper respect and right conduct toward spiritual persons.

No tīrtha name appears in this verse; it is part of a broader tīrtha-māhātmya storyline in the Nāgarakhaṇḍa.

A śānti rite is mentioned, along with the ethical prerequisite of honoring the officiant (āśīr/welcome and respect).
