Description of the Pilgrimage to the Sacred Tīrthas
Kurukṣetra-yātrā-krama
इति श्रीहृहन्नारदीयपुराणे बृहदुपाख्याने उत्तरभागे वसुमोहिनीसंवादे कुरुक्षेत्रमाहात्म्ये तीर्थयात्रावर्णनं नाम पञ्चषष्टितमोऽध्यायः ॥ ६५ ॥
iti śrīhṛhannāradīyapurāṇe bṛhadupākhyāne uttarabhāge vasumohinīsaṃvāde kurukṣetramāhātmye tīrthayātrāvarṇanaṃ nāma pañcaṣaṣṭitamo'dhyāyaḥ || 65 ||
至此,《圣·广那罗陀往世书》宏大叙事(Bṛhad-upākhyāna)之北分(Uttara-bhāga)中,毗苏与摩希尼对话里的《库鲁克舍特罗圣地赞》(Kurukṣetra-māhātmya)之第六十五章——《朝礼诸圣渡处(Tīrtha)之行述》——圆满结束。
Sūta (colophon/end-of-chapter formula; narrative frame rather than a spoken verse)
Vrata: none
Rasa: {"primary_rasa":"shanta","secondary_rasa":"none","emotional_journey":"Formal closure and textual self-identification (colophon), creating a calm sense of completion and transition."}
It functions as a colophon marking the completion of Adhyaya 65, framing the tīrtha-yātrā teaching as part of Kurukṣetra’s sanctity (māhātmya) and preserving the textual lineage and context for ritual-pilgrimage practice.
Indirectly: by situating pilgrimage (tīrtha-yātrā) within a māhātmya, it supports bhakti through sacred geography—visiting revered places with faith as an aid to remembrance, purification, and devotion-oriented discipline.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught in this colophon; it primarily provides textual organization—chapter title, section, and dialogue frame—useful for accurate citation and ritual-reading (pāṭha) referencing.
