तं कामं प्राप्तवान्धीमान्परां मुदमुपागतः । अहल्यया समायोगमेतत्तीर्थप्रभावतः
taṃ kāmaṃ prāptavāndhīmānparāṃ mudamupāgataḥ | ahalyayā samāyogametattīrthaprabhāvataḥ
وہ دانا اپنے مطلوب تک پہنچ گیا اور اعلیٰ ترین مسرت میں داخل ہوا؛ اسی تیرتھ کے پرتاب سے اہلیہ کے ساتھ وصال نصیب ہوا۔
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) to the sages (deduced)
Tirtha: Koṭitīrtha
Type: kund
Listener: Arjuna (Phālguna)
Scene: Gautama rises from austerity as the desired reunion is granted; the tīrtha glows, and the atmosphere shifts from sorrow to supreme joy, suggesting divine sanction through the waters’ power.
The merit-force of a tīrtha (tīrtha-prabhāva) can consummate the fruit of sustained tapas.
The same Koṭitīrtha referenced earlier, praised for its extraordinary spiritual efficacy.
No explicit rite is commanded here; it emphasizes the result (phala) granted by tīrtha-prabhāva.
