तत्र तप्त्वा तपो घोरं ब्रह्मलोकं जगाम सः । शतश्रृंगो नृपश्रेष्ठः शतश्रृंगे नगोत्तमे
tatra taptvā tapo ghoraṃ brahmalokaṃ jagāma saḥ | śataśrṛṃgo nṛpaśreṣṭhaḥ śataśrṛṃge nagottame
అక్కడ ఘోర తపస్సు చేసి అతడు బ్రహ్మలోకాన్ని పొందెను. రాజశ్రేష్ఠుడు శతశృంగుడు శతశృంగమనే ఉత్తమ పర్వతంపై ఈ ఫలాన్ని పొందెను.

Tirtha: Śataśṛṅga
Type: peak
Scene: A crowned king-ascetic (Śataśṛṅga) stands on a lofty multi-peaked mountain, body emaciated by austerity, surrounded by wind-swept pines and hermitage fires; above, a luminous path opens toward Brahmaloka.
Intense tapas, performed in a sanctified place, bears exalted fruit—attainment of higher worlds—affirming the Purāṇic link between place, practice, and result.
Śataśṛṅga mountain is praised as a superior sacred mountain connected with successful austerity.
Tapas is the central practice; no auxiliary ritual details are provided.
