pitṛkuṃḍācchataṃsāgraṃ dhruvatīrthācchatāni ṣaṭ | mānasākhyācca saraso dviśatī saśatatrayā
پِتṛ-کُنڈ سے سو سے کچھ زیادہ قافلے آئے؛ دھروَ-تیرتھ سے چھ سو؛ اور مانس نامی سرور سے دو سو اور اس کے ساتھ مزید سو—یوں کاشی کے تیرتھوں کی تقدیس سے کھنچے ہوئے بڑے بڑے گروہ پہنچے۔

Type: kund
Listener: Ṛṣis (general frame)
Scene: Processions of pilgrims arriving from multiple sacred ponds and lakes, carrying waterpots and staffs, converging toward Kāśī’s ghāṭs and the Viśvanātha precinct; banners naming Pitṛ-kuṇḍa, Dhruva-tīrtha, and Mānasa-saras.
Kāśī’s tīrthas magnetize devotees; collective pilgrimage itself becomes a sign of faith and accumulated puṇya.
Pitṛkuṇḍa, Dhruva-tīrtha, and the Mānasa-named lake—tīrthas within the Kāśī sacred landscape.
No explicit rite is stated; the emphasis is on arriving from tīrthas as part of pilgrimage to Kāśīnātha.
