Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 79
तस्मादपींद्रसेनाख्यस्तस्य पुत्रो महाबलः । चंद्रांगदोस्मि नाम्नाहं नवोढः श्वशुरालये । विहरन्यमुनातोये निमग्नो देवचोदितः

“ထိုဘုရင်မှ အင်ဒြစေန ဟူသော အင်အားကြီးသားတော် မွေးဖွားလာ၏။ ကျွန်ုပ်သည် သူ၏သား၊ အမည်မှာ စန္ဒြာင်္ဂဒ ဖြစ်၏။ မင်္ဂလာသစ်ဖြစ်၍ မယားဘက်အိမ်၌ နေထိုင်စဉ် ယမုနာရေတွင် ကစားရင်း နတ်အမိန့်ကြောင့် ကျွန်ုပ် နစ်မြုပ်သွားခဲ့၏။”
Rājaputra (Chandrāṅgada)
Tirtha: Yamunā
Type: river
Listener: Takṣaka
Scene: A youthful prince, newly married, plays in the Yamunā; the water suddenly deepens and draws him under as if guided by an unseen hand; above, ripples and lotus leaves; below, a shadowed path toward a jeweled underworld.
FAQs
Purāṇic narratives emphasize daiva (divine providence): life’s turns may be guided by unseen sacred purposes.
The Yamunā is explicitly mentioned as the river where the pivotal event occurred.
None directly; the context highlights the sanctity of Yamunā waters rather than prescribing a rite.
