Adhyaya 29

हिन्दी अर्थ

और भगवान् गदाधरका ध्यान करते हुए उन्होंने उसी अग्निमें अपने शरीरकी भी आहुति दे दी। तब वे सब-के-सब दिव्य विमानपर आरूढ़ हो स्वर्गलोकको चले गये।

English

O excellent one, Kaveri 1 is well known in the three worlds. O Markanda, I wish to listen to her real greatness. What is the mode of visiting that river? O Lord, what is the benefit of the touch thereof? O Sage, what benefit accrues from ablution, Japa, Dana and Upavasa (observance of faist there at the confluence of Kaveri)? Do narrate, O highly es- teemed one. I have heard that any holy rite heard, seen, narrated, performed or approved of does sanctify one. It is the Vedic statement, O sage, that as in the case of Dharma, so in that of heaven and hell too.

हिन्दी अर्थ

युधिष्ठिर! भगवान् सोमनाथका ऐसा ही प्रभाव है। अष्टमी और चतुर्दशीको शुभ दिनमें सब समय और विशेषतः शुक्ल पक्षमें सप्तमी तथा रविवारका योग होनेपर मनुष्य उपवास

English

Excellent! Excellent! O highly esteemed one, since

हिन्दी अर्थ

करके भक्तिभावसे रात्रिमें जागरण करे। भगवान् शिवको स्नान कराकर उनके श्रीविग्रहमें चन्दनका लेप करे और पुष्प, धूप आदि देकर घीसे दीपक जलावे। फिर दूसरे दिन अष्टमीयुक्त सोमवारको

English

At the end of a hundred years, Mahesvara, the Lord of Devas, became pleased with his great devotion and spoke to him smilingly: "O Yaksa of great strength and excellent holy rites, choose a boon. I have become pleased with your devo- tion. I shall grant you what you wish."

हिन्दी अर्थ

प्रातःकाल क्रोधको जीतनेवाले, निन्दासे दूर रहनेवाले, सर्वांगसुन्दर, शान्त, अपनी पत्नीका पालन करनेवाले, गायत्रीजपपरायण तथा कुकर्म- रहित ब्राह्मणका पूजन करे। ऐसा करनेसे वह

English

Hence, a man must make every effort to have his holy ablution there. He should worship Lord Isvara if he seeks the eternal state (i.e. Moksa). O king, Sndna, Dana and Arcana (adoration) performed devoutly by men (there) have more benefit than a horse-sacrifice, O excellent one among men. Everlasting heavenly pleasure is obtained through Homa; the life-span gets increased due to Japa; one attains the eternal region characterised by Sivakala(P) through meditation.

हिन्दी अर्थ

भगवान् शिवके लोकमें जाता है।

English

For another fifteen births there will not be any break in the line of their succession. Their sin gets dissolved like snow at the time of sunrise. A man who takes his holy ablution in Kaveri obtains the benefit usually attained at the confluence of Ganga and Yamuna. It is remembered as eight times more beneficial when Tuesday coincides with the four- teenth lunar day, during Vyatlpata, during the transit of the Sun and when Rahu and the Moon come in conjunction (lu- nar eclipse).
