The Sacred Greatness of Sānandūra
ऋषिलोकं परित्यज्य मम लोकं प्रपद्यते ॥ तत्राश्चर्यं महाभागे नमस्कारं च कुर्वते ॥
ṛṣilokaṃ parityajya mama lokaṃ prapadyate || tatrāścaryaṃ mahābhāge namaskāraṃ ca kurvate
ఋషిలోకాన్ని విడిచి నా లోకాన్ని పొందుతాడు. అక్కడ, ఓ మహాభాగే, ఒక ఆశ్చర్యం కనిపిస్తుంది—అతడు భక్తితో నమస్కారం చేస్తాడు.
Varāha
It shows how Purāṇic texts map moral action (namaskāra/reverence) onto cosmological ascent narratives, creating a didactic link between conduct and imagined destinations.
No terrestrial site is named; the verse references cosmological realms (ṛṣiloka, 'my realm') as part of the narrative sequence.
Reverence (namaskāra) is presented as a key cultivated disposition within the pilgrimage/ascetic trajectory.
