Narrator (contextually Sūta/Lomaharṣaṇa continuing the tīrtha-māhātmya narration)
Type: kund
Listener: dvijottama
Scene: Inside the shimmering pool, deer dissolve into radiant human forms; water glows as if infused with mantra; the forest edge witnesses the impossible.
A tīrtha is portrayed as a living source of grace: contact with its waters can uplift even non-human beings, symbolizing the purifying reach of dharma.

Snāna (bathing/immersion) is implied as the key act through which the transformation occurs.
