Tirtha: Dharmāraṇya
Type: kshetra
Scene: A sacred forest-kshetra (Dharmāraṇya) is evoked as a luminous, divine narrative-space; sages or devotees listen to the māhātmya, with a subtle aura of purification washing away dark stains of sin.
Śravaṇa (devotional hearing) of a tīrtha’s māhātmya is itself a purifier capable of dissolving even grave karmic stains.
Dharmāraṇya—the sacred forest—whose divine greatness is said to remove all sufferings and sins.
