Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) narrating to the sages (deduced)
Tirtha: Rāmanātha (Rāmeśvara)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Addressed to a dvija audience in the surrounding passage style (implicit)
Scene: Inside the Rāmanātha shrine, a devotee performs abhiṣeka on a dark stone liṅga; attendants hold vessels of golden fruit-essence (mango and likuca), with offerings of bilva and lamps; the sea-breeze of Setu is implied through fluttering cloth and conch-sound motifs; ancestral presence suggested by subtle pitṛ-tarpaṇa vessels nearby.
Worship at Rāmanātha is linked with ancestral welfare, reflecting Purāṇic emphasis on pitṛ-dharma alongside bhakti.
