त्वया स्नानं प्रकर्तव्यं सुपुण्येऽत्र जलाशये । ततो दिव्य वपुर्भूत्वा यौवनेन समन्विता । भविष्यसि न संदेहः सत्यमेतन्मयोदितम्
tvayā snānaṃ prakartavyaṃ supuṇye'tra jalāśaye | tato divya vapurbhūtvā yauvanena samanvitā | bhaviṣyasi na saṃdehaḥ satyametanmayoditam
“Deves realizar o banho ritual neste reservatório de águas de mérito excelso. Então, assumindo um corpo divino e dotada de juventude, assim te tornarás—sem dúvida. Isto é verdade, pois eu o declarei.”
Devī (Girijā/Gaurī)
Type: kund
Listener: the petitioning woman
Scene: At the sacred reservoir, the devotee performs the prescribed bath; the water glows with tīrtha-śakti, and she emerges radiant with a divine body and renewed youth as the Goddess’s promise stands fulfilled.
Tīrtha-snāna done as instructed, with faith and right observance, is presented as a vehicle of Devī’s transformative grace.
A supremely meritorious local jalāśaya (sacred pond/reservoir) within Nāgarakhaṇḍa’s Tīrthamāhātmya.
Perform snāna (ritual bathing) in the sacred jalāśaya at the prescribed time; the promised result is renewed youth and divine form.
