ततो रथस्थितं देवं पूजयेद्गरुडध्वजम् । कार्त्तिकांते च विप्रेंद्रा गोमत्युदधिसंगमे

于是,当礼敬那立于战车之上的、以迦楼罗为旗的主;并在迦尔蒂迦月将尽之时,噢最胜婆罗门,当于戈摩提河与大海交汇之处行此供奉。

Tirtha: Gomatī–Udadhī Saṅgama (Dvārakā)
Type: sangam
Listener: viprendra (best of brāhmaṇas)
Scene: At the Gomatī’s mouth where it meets the ocean, a decorated chariot bearing Garuḍadhvaja Viṣṇu stands amid crowds; flags whip in sea wind; priests offer lamps and flowers as the sun sets on Kārttika’s final day.
Sacred time (Kārttika’s end) and sacred place (river–ocean confluence) together intensify the fruit of worship.
The Gomatī–ocean confluence (Gomatī-udadhi-saṅgama) in the Dvārakā region.
