हंसतीर्थे नरः स्नात्वा दानं दत्त्वा च काञ्चनम् । सर्वपापविनिर्मुक्तो ब्रह्मलोकं स गच्छति
haṃsatīrthe naraḥ snātvā dānaṃ dattvā ca kāñcanam | sarvapāpavinirmukto brahmalokaṃ sa gacchati

Mārkaṇḍeya (continued discourse)
Tirtha: Haṃsatīrtha
Type: ghat
Listener: Dharādhiśa (king)
Scene: A pilgrim bathes at a river ghat of Haṃsatīrtha, then offers gold in charity to a brāhmaṇa; above, a luminous path to Brahmaloka is hinted, with Brahmā’s realm depicted as radiant and serene.
Purification is paired with generosity: snāna plus dāna at a tīrtha yields freedom from sin and exalted posthumous realms.
