उपवासपरो भूत्वा नियतेन्द्रियमानसः । तत्र स्नात्वा विधानेन मुच्यते ब्रह्महत्यया
upavāsaparo bhūtvā niyatendriyamānasaḥ | tatra snātvā vidhānena mucyate brahmahatyayā
Chuyên tâm trì trai, nhiếp phục các căn và tâm ý, rồi tắm gội nơi ấy đúng theo nghi pháp—người ấy được giải thoát cả khỏi tội brahmahatyā (sát hại bà-la-môn).
Śrī Mārkaṇḍeya (continued)
Tirtha: Eraṇḍīsaṅgama
Type: sangam
Scene: A disciplined pilgrim at the sangama: fasting, controlled posture, performing ācamana and then bathing at the confluence; a small fire/diya and offering plate on the bank; the mood is austere and purifying.
Purification is linked to disciplined conduct—fasting and self-restraint—combined with proper ritual bathing at a tīrtha.
Eraṇḍīsaṅgama, where prescribed bathing is said to remove even brahmahatyā.
Upavāsa (fasting), indriya-nigraha (restraint), and vidhivat snāna (bathing according to rule).
