ततः खञ्जनकं तीर्थं तस्य नाम्नेति विश्रुतम् । तत्र स्नात्वा नरो याति सोमलोकं न संशयः
tataḥ khañjanakaṃ tīrthaṃ tasya nāmneti viśrutam | tatra snātvā naro yāti somalokaṃ na saṃśayaḥ
ଏହିପରି ସେ ତୀର୍ଥ ତାହାର ନାମରେ ‘ଖଞ୍ଜନକ-ତୀର୍ଥ’ ଭାବେ ପ୍ରସିଦ୍ଧ ହେଲା। ସେଠାରେ ସ୍ନାନ କଲେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟ ସୋମଲୋକକୁ ଯାଏ—ସନ୍ଦେହ ନାହିଁ।

Type: ghat
Scene: Pilgrim bathing at Khañjanaka-tīrtha; above, a luminous moon-disc and Soma’s celestial realm is hinted—white radiance, cool light, and a pathway of merit rising from the water.
A tīrtha’s sanctity is amplified by both its sacred origin-story and the prescribed act of snāna that yields a promised fruit.
