तेषां समीपे यो देशो हृदानां रुधिराम्भसाम् | समनन््तपजञ्चकमिति पुण्यं तत् परिकीर्तितम्,उन रक्तसे भरे सरोवरोंके पास जो प्रदेश है उसे ही समन्तपंचक कहते हैं। यह क्षेत्र बहुत ही पुण्यप्रद है
teṣāṁ samīpe yo deśo hṛdānāṁ rudhirāmbhasām | samantapañcakam iti puṇyaṁ tat parikīrtitam ||
Malapit sa mga lawaing punô ng dugo ay may isang lupain na kilala sa pangalang Samantapañcaka. Ang pook na iyon ay ipinahahayag na lubhang banal at mapagkaloob ng dakilang kabanalan.
