निघ्नंतो वा शपंतो वा वदंतो वापि निष्ठुरम् । पूजनीयाः सदा विप्रा दिव्यांल्लोकानभीप्सुभिः
nighnaṃto vā śapaṃto vā vadaṃto vāpi niṣṭhuram | pūjanīyāḥ sadā viprā divyāṃllokānabhīpsubhiḥ
خواہ وہ ماریں، یا بددعا دیں، یا سخت کلامی کریں، پھر بھی جو لوگ الٰہی عوالم کے طالب ہیں اُنہیں وِپروں (برہمنوں) کی ہمیشہ تعظیم کرنی چاہیے۔
Duḥśīla
Type: kshetra
Scene: A didactic tableau: brāhmaṇas remain composed even when striking/cursing; the aspirant bows, choosing reverence over retaliation, with a luminous path to divine realms implied.
The verse teaches reverence toward brāhmaṇas as a dharmic ideal, linking humility and respect to higher spiritual destinations (divine worlds).
No particular tīrtha is specified in this line; it provides a general dharma teaching within the tīrthamāhātmya narrative.
No explicit ritual; the ‘prescription’ is ethical—pūjā/honor toward vipras.
