षष्टिपुत्रसहस्राणि यः प्रापारातिसूदनः । सूर्यं तत्र समाराध्य सगरः पृथिवीपतिः
ṣaṣṭiputrasahasrāṇi yaḥ prāpārātisūdanaḥ | sūryaṃ tatra samārādhya sagaraḥ pṛthivīpatiḥ
Hỡi bậc diệt thù, vua Sagara—chúa tể cõi đất—do phụng thờ Thần Mặt Trời tại nơi ấy mà được sáu vạn hoàng tử.

Tirtha: Sāgarāditya
Type: kshetra
Listener: Mahādevī (Pārvatī)
Scene: King Sagara stands at a coastal Sūrya shrine offering arghya at sunrise; behind him appear rows of symbolic sons (60,000) as a visual motif; the sun’s rays descend like blessings.
Devout worship at a sanctified site can bestow extraordinary boons, including lineage and royal prosperity, when aligned with dharma.
