गोशतस्य प्रयागे तु सम्यग्दत्तस्य यत्फलम् । तत्फलं लभते मर्त्यः पर्णादित्यस्य दर्शनात्
gośatasya prayāge tu samyagdattasya yatphalam | tatphalaṃ labhate martyaḥ parṇādityasya darśanāt
பிரயாகத்தில் நூறு பசுக்களை முறையாக தானம் செய்தால் கிடைக்கும் பலன் எதுவோ, அதே பலனை மனிதன் பர்ணாதித்ய தரிசனத்தினாலேயே பெறுகிறான்।
Narrator (Purāṇic voice stating comparative merit)
Tirtha: Parṇāditya (Prabhāsa)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim stands before Parṇāditya; above, a symbolic tableau shows a hundred cows being gifted at Prayāga—two scenes linked by a radiant thread of merit, implying equivalence.
A powerful tīrtha-darśana can equal great acts of charity, showing the concentrated sanctity of sacred places.
Parṇāditya at Prabhāsakṣetra; Prayāga is referenced as a benchmark for merit.
No direct prescription; it teaches the merit equivalence of Parṇāditya darśana with go-śata-dāna at Prayāga.
