Pulastya’s Tīrtha Enumeration: Sarasvatī, Naimiṣa, Gayā, and Associated Phalaśruti
Chapter 82
अथ पउज्चनदं गत्वा नियतो नियताशन: । पज्चयज्ञानवाप्रोति क्रमशो येडनुकीर्तिता:,तदनन्तर शौच-संतोष आदि नियमोंका पालन और नियमित भोजन करते हुए पंचनदतीर्थमें जाकर मनुष्य पंचमहायज्ञोंका फल पाता है जो कि शास्त्रोंमें क्रमश: बतलाये गये हैं
atha pañcanadaṃ gatvā niyato niyatāśanaḥ | pañcayajñān avāpnoti kramaśo ye ’nukīrtitāḥ ||
随后,前往圣洁的“般遮那陀”(Pañcanada)渡口,行止自律、饮食节制之人,便能获得“五大祭”(五种大供献)之功德——经论依次所列者。此段强调:清净、知足等诸般戒行,连同有度的生活,使朝圣成为合乎法义的修持,而非仅是形体的远行。
घुलस्त्य उवाच
Pilgrimage yields its full spiritual and ethical fruit when joined to disciplined living—purity, contentment, and regulated conduct—so that one gains the merit associated with the five great daily duties (pañcamahāyajña) as taught in scripture.
The speaker describes the result of going to the Pañcanada sacred place while observing restraints and a regulated diet: the pilgrim is said to obtain the merit of the five great sacrifices, in the order traditionally taught.
