स विष्णु वल्लभो दीपः सर्वदा पापहारकः । चातुर्मास्ये विशेषेण कामनासिद्धिकारकः
sa viṣṇu vallabho dīpaḥ sarvadā pāpahārakaḥ | cāturmāsye viśeṣeṇa kāmanāsiddhikārakaḥ
وہ چراغ جو وشنو کو محبوب ہے، ہمیشہ گناہوں کو دور کرتا ہے؛ اور چاتُرمَاسیہ میں خاص طور پر آرزوؤں کی تکمیل کا سبب بن جاتا ہے۔
Brahmā
Tirtha: Viṣṇu-dīpa (rite-centered)
Type: ghat
Listener: Nārada
Scene: A devotee lights a lamp before Viṣṇu; dark smoke-like forms of sin dissolve into the lamp’s radiance; during monsoon months, the temple glows with rows of lamps symbolizing intensified fruit.
Devotional offerings like lighting a lamp are not symbolic alone; they are presented as concrete dharmic acts that cleanse wrongdoing and support life-goals when aligned with sacred time.
The verse praises the act of offering a lamp to Viṣṇu (typically in a temple setting) rather than naming a particular tirtha in this line.
Offer a lamp (dīpa) to Viṣṇu, with heightened emphasis and expected fruit during the Cāturmāsya period.
