व्यास उवाच । सहस्रधारामाहात्म्यं विस्तराद्वद सुव्रत । शृण्वंस्तीर्थस्य माहात्म्यं न तृप्यति मनो मम
vyāsa uvāca | sahasradhārāmāhātmyaṃ vistarādvada suvrata | śṛṇvaṃstīrthasya māhātmyaṃ na tṛpyati mano mama
Vyāsa nói: Ôi bậc giữ hạnh lành, xin hãy thuật tường tận về đại vinh quang của Sahasradhārā. Khi nghe công đức của thánh địa (tīrtha) này, lòng ta vẫn chưa hề thỏa mãn.
Vyāsa
Tirtha: Sahasradhārā
Type: kund
Listener: Agastya
Scene: Vyāsa, hands folded in respectful request, asks Agastya to narrate Sahasradhārā’s greatness in detail; the atmosphere is reverent, with a hint of wonder at the tīrtha’s fame.
The heart never tires of hearing authentic praise of sacred places; śravaṇa (devout listening) deepens faith and longing for pilgrimage.
Sahasradhārā Tīrtha in Ayodhyā.
No explicit ritual; the implied practice is śravaṇa—listening attentively to tīrtha-māhātmya.
