FAQs

Pilgrimage and travel attain sanctity when oriented toward darśana—direct encounter with the divine.

The verse mentions Bhārata-varṣa and a region called Mahīnagaraka, but does not explicitly praise a named tirtha in this line.

None explicitly; the devotional act emphasized is darśana-seeking.
