प्रयागगमने पुंसां यत्फलं तपसि श्रुतम् । तत्फलं स्याद्दशगुणमत्र स्नात्वा ममाग्रतः
prayāgagamane puṃsāṃ yatphalaṃ tapasi śrutam | tatphalaṃ syāddaśaguṇamatra snātvā mamāgrataḥ
Anumang bungang sinasabi ng tradisyon na natatamo ng mga tao sa paglalakbay sa Prayāga, yaon ding bunga ay nagiging sampung ulit dito, sa pagligo sa banal na pook na ito sa aking harapan.

Tirtha: Prayāga-tīrtha (Kāśī) before Prayāga-Mādhava
Type: ghat
Listener: Pilgrims/seekers in Kāśī-māhātmya frame
Scene: A devotee bathes at the ghāṭ ‘before’ Prayāga-Mādhava; above, a symbolic scale shows Prayāga’s merit multiplied tenfold—ten radiant lotuses or ten beams emanating from the deity toward the bathing waters.
Kāśī is proclaimed as a supreme sacred geography where standard tīrtha-merits are multiplied.
The local Kāśī tīrtha in the deity’s presence, compared explicitly with Prayāga’s pilgrimage merit.
Snāna (ritual bathing) performed ‘before’ the deity—i.e., with darśana and devotional orientation.
