गायत्रीं शिरसा हीनां महाव्याहृतिपूर्व्विकाम् । प्रणवाद्यां जपंस्तिष्ठन्क्षिपेदंभोंजलि त्रयम्
gāyatrīṃ śirasā hīnāṃ mahāvyāhṛtipūrvvikām | praṇavādyāṃ japaṃstiṣṭhankṣipedaṃbhoṃjali trayam
کھڑے ہو کر گایتری کا جپ کرے—شِرس (سر والا حصہ) کے بغیر، مہا ویاهرتیوں کے ساتھ، پرنَو سے آغاز کر کے—اور پھر پانی کی تین اَنجلیاں نذر کرے۔
Skanda (deduced from Dharmāraṇya-khaṇḍa narrative style within Brahmakhaṇḍa)
Type: ghat
Scene: At dawn or dusk, a practitioner stands facing the sun, reciting Gāyatrī with focused gaze, then offers three arghyas—three arcs of water glittering in the light.
Purification is secured through disciplined mantra-recitation (Gāyatrī with vyāhṛtis and Oṃ) coupled with a reverent water-offering.
No specific locality is named; the instruction is portable and aligns with tīrtha-dharma as practiced anywhere.
Standing, recite Gāyatrī (without the Śiras), preceded by Mahāvyāhṛtis and beginning with Praṇava, then offer/cast three añjalis of water.
