मातङ्ग–शक्रसंवादः

Mataṅga–Śakra Dialogue on Tapas, Status, and Moral Qualities

पूर्णमिन्दु यथा दृष्ट्वा नृणां दृष्टि: प्रसीदति । तथा त्रिपथगां दृष्टवा नृणां दृष्टि: प्रसीदति,जैसे पूर्ण चन्द्रमाका दर्शन करके मनुष्योंकी दृष्टि प्रसन्न हो जाती है, उसी तरह त्रिपथगा गंगाका दर्शन करके मनुष्योंके नेत्र आनन्दसे खिल उठते हैं

pūrṇam induṃ yathā dṛṣṭvā nṛṇāṃ dṛṣṭiḥ prasīdati | tathā tripathagāṃ dṛṣṭvā nṛṇāṃ dṛṣṭiḥ prasīdati ||

పూర్ణచంద్రుని దర్శించగానే మనుష్యుల దృష్టి ప్రసన్నమయ్యే విధంగా, త్రిపథగా గంగను దర్శించగానే కూడా వారి చూపు ఆనందంతో పవిత్రమవుతుంది.

Educational Q&A

The verse teaches the purifying and uplifting power of darśana: certain sacred and auspicious sights—like the full moon and the Gaṅgā—naturally calm the senses and clarify one’s inner perception, supporting a dharmic disposition.

A Siddha is praising the spiritual benefit of seeing the Gaṅgā, using a familiar analogy: just as the full moon delights the eyes, the sight of the Tripathagā Gaṅgā brings immediate serenity and joy to people.
