అతడు పుత్ర, పౌత్ర, ధనసంపదలతో యుక్తుడగును—ఇందులో సందేహం లేదు. మేఘాలతో చుట్టుముట్టబడిన జంబూ, విద్యుత్తుతో కూడి, అశోకవృక్షంతోనూ శోభిస్తుంది।

Tirtha: Jambū-vṛkṣa

FAQs

A Jambū-centered sacred setting within the Tīrthamāhātmya is implied; this verse alone does not specify the named tīrtha.
The verse primarily states results (sons, wealth) and describes the sacred grove imagery rather than prescribing a new act.
