Prahlāda
Tirtha: Śāligrāma-kṣetra; Gayā; Godāvarī; Cakra-nadī (invoked)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Brāhmaṇas/ṛṣis
Scene: A sacred assembly: Godāvarī as a river-goddess with a broad stream; Gayā as a venerable kṣetra-personification with piṇḍa offerings; Śāligrāma as a dark sacred stone on a lotus pedestal; Cakra-nadī as a river bearing a luminous discus emblem—each oriented toward Dvārakā.
The Purāṇa maps a devotional geography: famed tīrthas are invoked together to emphasize the concentrated sanctity of the narrative’s focal dhāma.
Multiple tīrthas are named (Godāvarī, Gayā, Śāligrāma), while the chapter’s larger glorification centers on Dvārakā.
None directly; though Gayā traditionally implies śrāddha rites, this verse itself is only enumerative.
