मोक्षमार्गो द्विजैश्चैव श्रुतिस्मृतिसमुच्चयात् । मोक्षोऽयं नगराकारश्चतुर्द्वार समाकुलः
mokṣamārgo dvijaiścaiva śrutismṛtisamuccayāt | mokṣo'yaṃ nagarākāraścaturdvāra samākulaḥ
Ang landas tungo sa mokṣa ay itinuro ng mga dvija (dalawang ulit na isinilang) mula sa pinagsamang patotoo ng Śruti at Smṛti. Ang mokṣang ito ay tulad ng isang lungsod na may apat na tarangkahan.
Skanda (deduced from Nāgarakhaṇḍa Tīrthamāhātmya didactic narration)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A radiant fortified city labeled ‘Mokṣa’ with four ornate gates; at the foreground, learned dvijas hold palm-leaf manuscripts of Śruti and Smṛti, pointing pilgrims toward the gates.
Liberation is a structured path grounded in Vedic revelation and remembered tradition, approached through defined disciplines.
No individual tirtha is named; the ‘city’ metaphor frames mokṣa in a way resonant with pilgrimage literature.
None directly; it points to śruti-smṛti based guidance as authoritative.
