एकतः सर्वतीर्थानि नानाविधिफलानि वै । सरयूघर्घरोत्पन्नसंगमस्त्वधिको भवेत्
ekataḥ sarvatīrthāni nānāvidhiphalāni vai | sarayūghargharotpannasaṃgamastvadhiko bhavet
ایک طرف سبھی تیرتھ ہیں، گوناگوں وِدھیوں کے پھلوں سمیت؛ مگر سرَیو کی گھرگھرا سے پیدا ہونے والا یہ سنگم اس سے بھی بڑھ کر افضل ہے۔
Unknown (Ayodhyāmāhātmya narrator; likely a Purāṇic teacher addressing a listener)
Tirtha: Sarayū–Ghargharā-saṅgama
Type: sangam
Scene: A luminous river-confluence where Sarayū meets Ghargharā; pilgrims stand at the meeting currents, offering arghya; distant Ayodhyā ghāṭs and temple silhouettes; celestial beings subtly implied above the waters.
Not all sacred places are equal; certain confluences are singled out as exceptionally potent in merit.
The saṅgama connected with the Sarayū and the Gharghara at Ayodhyā.
Implied tīrtha-sevā through visiting and bathing at the Sarayū–Gharghara confluence.
