ब्राह्मणाः पुरतः सर्वे शांता दांता जितेंद्रियाः । गर्त्तातीर्थोद्भवं विप्रं तेषां मध्ये निवेशयेत्
brāhmaṇāḥ purataḥ sarve śāṃtā dāṃtā jiteṃdriyāḥ | garttātīrthodbhavaṃ vipraṃ teṣāṃ madhye niveśayet
تمام برہمن سامنے بیٹھیں—پُرسکون، ضبطِ نفس والے اور حواس پر غالب؛ اور گرتّا تیرتھ سے وابستہ برہمن کو ان کے درمیان بٹھایا جائے۔
Skanda (deduced)
Tirtha: Garttā-tīrtha
Type: kshetra
Scene: A disciplined assembly of brāhmaṇas seated in front, hands in añjali or holding darbha; in the center sits the Garttā-tīrtha brāhmaṇa, marked as leader, with calm gaze and ritual implements.
Inner discipline—peace, restraint, and sense-mastery—is presented as essential for sanctifying tīrtha-rituals.
Garttā-tīrtha is explicitly named as the tīrtha connected to the central officiant.
Seat disciplined Brāhmaṇas in front and place the Garttā-tīrtha-associated Brāhmaṇa among them as a central figure.
