FAQs

In Purāṇic ritual logic, properly received dāna can effect moral purification, symbolically transferring sin away from the donor.

The mantra belongs to the Nāgarakhaṇḍa Tīrthamāhātmya setting; this verse focuses on the acceptance-mantra rather than a named tīrtha.

It gives the pratigraha-mantra spoken by the recipient at the moment of accepting the gift, declaring the donor purified.
