Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 48
किं जलैर्बहुभिः पुण्यैस्तीर्थकोटिसमुद्भवैः । दृष्ट्वा सोमेश्वरं यस्तु द्वारकां नैव गच्छति । धिक्कुर्वंति च तं पापं पितरो दिवि संस्थिताः
kiṃ jalairbahubhiḥ puṇyaistīrthakoṭisamudbhavaiḥ | dṛṣṭvā someśvaraṃ yastu dvārakāṃ naiva gacchati | dhikkurvaṃti ca taṃ pāpaṃ pitaro divi saṃsthitāḥ
由亿万圣地所涌出的诸多“圣水”，又有何益？若有人既已瞻礼苏摩伊湿伐罗，却不前往德瓦拉卡——那罪人将被安住天界的祖灵（Pitṛ）所呵责。

FAQs
The Purāṇa emphasizes completion of the prescribed sacred route; scattered rites are deemed inferior to fulfilling the full tīrtha-connection of Prabhāsa and Dvārakā.
Someśvara/Somanātha at Prabhāsa and Dvārakā as the necessary continuation of the pilgrimage.
After Someśvara-darśana, one should proceed to Dvārakā; the verse contrasts this with merely collecting many ‘holy waters’.
