It concludes the Avimukta-kṣetra praise by stating its tangible “phala” (results): sincere seekers obtain their intended aims, underscoring the kṣetra’s power and the efficacy of faith and pilgrimage.
By presenting Avimukta’s grace as accessible to devotees with earnest intention, it reflects bhakti’s principle that heartfelt seeking and reverence for a sacred kṣetra bring divine support and fulfillment.
This is primarily a phala-śruti typical of Purāṇic mahatmyas rather than a Vedāṅga lesson; it practically guides pilgrimage/kshetra-veneration as a dhārmic means for desired outcomes.
