1.
Pulastya said: 'O knower of natural law (dharmajña), one should then go to the ancient sacred place (tīrtha) of natural law (dharma). O King, a man who, having bathed there, is of a righteous disposition (dharmaśīla) and composed, purifies his lineage up to the seventh generation. There is no doubt about this.'
ततो गच्छेत धर्मज्ञ कारापतनमुत्तमम् ।
अग्निष्टोममवाप्नोति मुनिलोकं च गच्छति ॥२॥
अग्निष्टोममवाप्नोति मुनिलोकं च गच्छति ॥२॥
2. tato gaccheta dharmajña kārāpatanamuttamam ,

tataḥ gaccheta dharmajña kārāpatanam uttamam
agniṣṭomam avāpnoti munilokam ca gacchati
agniṣṭomam avāpnoti munilokam ca gacchati
2.
Then, O knower of natural law (dharma), one should go to the excellent Kārāpatana. One attains the benefit of the Agniṣṭoma sacrifice and reaches the world of sages.
सौगन्धिकं वनं राजंस्ततो गच्छेत मानवः ।
यत्र ब्रह्मादयो देवा ऋषयश्च तपोधनाः ॥३॥
यत्र ब्रह्मादयो देवा ऋषयश्च तपोधनाः ॥३॥
3. saugandhikaṁ vanaṁ rājaṁstato gaccheta mānavaḥ ,

yatra brahmādayaḥ devāḥ ṛṣayaḥ ca tapodhanāḥ
yatra brahmādayaḥ devāḥ ṛṣayaḥ ca tapodhanāḥ
3.
Then, O King, one should proceed to the fragrant forest. It is there that Brahmā and other gods, along with sages whose wealth is asceticism (tapas), reside.
सिद्धचारणगन्धर्वाः किंनराः समहोरगाः ।
तद्वनं प्रविशन्नेव सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते ॥४॥
तद्वनं प्रविशन्नेव सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते ॥४॥
4. siddhacāraṇagandharvāḥ kiṁnarāḥ samahoragāḥ ,

siddhacāraṇagandharvāḥ kiṃnarāḥ samahoragāḥ
tat vanam praviśan eva sarvapāpaiḥ pramucyate
tat vanam praviśan eva sarvapāpaiḥ pramucyate
4.
Siddhas, Cāraṇas, Gandharvas, Kinnaras, and even great serpents (mahā-uragāḥ) [reside there]. Just by entering that forest, one is freed from all sins.
ततो हि सा सरिच्छ्रेष्ठा नदीनामुत्तमा नदी ।

प्लक्षाद्देवी स्रुता राजन्महापुण्या सरस्वती ॥५॥

5.
Then, indeed, O King, that Sarasvatī, the supreme river, the best among rivers, the divine one of great sanctity, flowed forth from Plakṣa.

6.
One should perform an ablution there in the water that has emerged from an anthill. Having worshipped the ancestors and gods, one obtains the fruit of an aśvamedha (horse sacrifice).

7.
There is a very rare holy bathing place (tīrtha) named Īśānādhyuṣita. It is certainly located at a distance corresponding to six throws of a peg from the anthill.

8.
O tiger among men, by bathing there, one obtains the merit of a thousand tawny cows and a horse sacrifice (aśvamedha). This has been observed in ancient traditions.
सुगन्धां शतकुम्भां च पञ्चयज्ञां च भारत ।
अभिगम्य नरश्रेष्ठ स्वर्गलोके महीयते ॥९॥

9.
O Bhārata, O best of men, one who visits (the holy places of) Sugandhā, Śatakumbhā, and Pañcayajñā (the place of five ritual sacrifices), is glorified in the heavenly realm.
त्रिशूलखातं तत्रैव तीर्थमासाद्य भारत ।

āsādya bhārata tatra abhiṣekam kurvīta
pitṛdevarcane rataḥ gāṇapatyam
saḥ labhate deham tyaktvā na saṃśayaḥ
10.
O Bhārata, having reached that very sacred bathing place (tīrtha) dug by a trident, one who is dedicated to the worship of ancestors and gods should perform an ablution there. Without a doubt, by abandoning the body, he attains the state of being an attendant of Gaṇeśa.
ततो गच्छेत राजेन्द्र देव्याः स्थानं सुदुर्लभम् ।
शाकंभरीति विख्याता त्रिषु लोकेषु विश्रुता ॥११॥

11.
O best of kings, thereafter one should go to the very rare and difficult-to-obtain place of the Goddess, who is well-known as Śākambharī throughout the three worlds.
दिव्यं वर्षसहस्रं हि शाकेन किल सुव्रत ।

12.
O one of good vows, O lord of men, it is said that she indeed sustained herself with vegetables, month after month, for a divine thousand years.
ऋषयोऽभ्यागतास्तत्र देव्या भक्त्या तपोधनाः ।
आतिथ्यं च कृतं तेषां शाकेन किल भारत ।

13.

tapodhanāḥ ātithyam ca kṛtam teṣām
śākena kila bhārata tataḥ śākambharī
iti eva nāma tasyāḥ pratiṣṭhitam
13.
O Bhārata, it is said that sages, rich in asceticism (tapas), arrived there, and the Goddess, with devotion (bhakti), offered them hospitality with vegetables. Therefore, her name Śākambharī itself became established.
शाकंभरीं समासाद्य ब्रह्मचारी समाहितः ।
त्रिरात्रमुषितः शाकं भक्षयेन्नियतः शुचिः ॥१४॥
त्रिरात्रमुषितः शाकं भक्षयेन्नियतः शुचिः ॥१४॥

trirātram uṣitaḥ śākam bhakṣayet niyataḥ śuciḥ
14.
Having reached Śākambharī, a celibate student (brahmacārī) who is concentrated and pure, should eat vegetables for three nights, being disciplined.
शाकाहारस्य यत्सम्यग्वर्षैर्द्वादशभिः फलम् ।
तत्फलं तस्य भवति देव्याश्छन्देन भारत ॥१५॥

tat phalam tasya bhavati devyāḥ chandena bhārata
15.
O Bhārata, whatever fruit is truly gained from a vegetable diet for twelve years, that very fruit becomes his by the will of the Goddess.
ततो गच्छेत्सुवर्णाक्षं त्रिषु लोकेषु विश्रुतम् ।
यत्र विष्णुः प्रसादार्थं रुद्रमाराधयत्पुरा ॥१६॥
यत्र विष्णुः प्रसादार्थं रुद्रमाराधयत्पुरा ॥१६॥

yatra viṣṇuḥ prasādārtham rudram ārādhayat purā

16.
From there, one should go to Suvarṇākṣa, renowned in the three worlds, where in ancient times Viṣṇu worshipped Rudra for the sake of obtaining grace.
वरांश्च सुबहूँल्लेभे दैवतेषु सुदुर्लभान् ।

17.
And he obtained many boons, very rare among the gods. And he was addressed, O Bhārata, by the delighted destroyer of the three cities (Tripuraghna, i.e., Rudra).
अपि चास्मत्प्रियतरो लोके कृष्ण भविष्यसि ।

18.
Moreover, O Kṛṣṇa, you will become exceedingly dear to us in the world. And undoubtedly, your face will encompass the entire universe.

19.
O king of kings, having gone there and worshipped the bull-bannered deity (Shiva), one attains the fruit of the horse (Vedic ritual) and also obtains the status of a Gaṇapati.
धूमावतीं ततो गच्छेत्त्रिरत्रोपोषितो नरः ।

20.
Then, a person who has fasted for three nights at that spot should go to Dhūmāvatī. Without a doubt, he obtains the desires (kāmā) he has prayed for in his mind.
देव्यास्तु दक्षिणार्धेन रथावर्तो नराधिप ।

21.
On the southern side of the Goddess's shrine, O king (narādhipa), is the sacred spot known as Rathāvarta. A person who understands natural law (dharma), possesses deep faith (śraddhā), and has controlled their senses (jitendriya) should ascend there. Indeed, by the grace of Mahādeva, they would attain the supreme destination.

22.
O best of Bharatas, O greatly wise one, one should circumambulate and then proceed to the place called Dhārā, which completely eradicates all sins. Having bathed there, O tiger among men, O lord of men, one does not grieve.
ततो गच्छेत धर्मज्ञ नमस्कृत्य महागिरिम् ।

svargadvāreṇa yat tulyam gaṅgādvāram na saṃśayaḥ
23.
Then, O knower of natural law (dharma), having offered obeisance, one should proceed to the great mountain, the Gaṅgā Gate, which is undoubtedly equal to the gate of heaven.
तत्राभिषेकं कुर्वीत कोटितीर्थे समाहितः ।

puṇḍarīkam avāpnoti ca eva kulam samuddharet
puṇḍarīkam avāpnoti ca eva kulam samuddharet
24.
There, being concentrated (or resolute), one should perform an ablution at Koṭitīrtha. One attains the merit of a Puṇḍarīka (Vedic ritual) and indeed liberates one's family.
सप्तगङ्गे त्रिगङ्गे च शक्रावर्ते च तर्पयन् ।

25.
By propitiating the gods and ancestors according to the rules at Saptagaṅgā, Trigṅgā, and Śakrāvartā, one is glorified in a meritorious realm.
ततः कनखले स्नात्वा त्रिरात्रोपोषितो नरः ।

aśvamedham avāpnoti svargalokam ca gacchati

26.
Then, a person who bathes in Kanakhala and fasts for three nights attains the aśvamedha (horse sacrifice) and goes to the heavenly realm (svargaloka).

27.
O King (narādhipa), a pilgrim (tīrthasevī) should visit Kapilāvaṭa. By staying there for one night, he obtains the merit of [donating] a thousand cows.

29.
O King (narādhipa), a person (mānava) should perform a ritual bath (abhiṣeka) at that Nāga sacred place (tīrtha). He obtains the merit of [donating] a thousand tawny (kapilā) cows.
ततो ललितिकां गच्छेच्छंतनोस्तीर्थमुत्तमम् ।

30.
O king, one should then go to Lalitikā, the excellent sacred place (tīrtha) of Śaṃtanu. A person who bathes there will not experience misfortune (durgati).

32.
Then, O king of kings (rājendra), one should go to Sugandhā, which is renowned throughout the world. A person whose inner being (ātman) is completely purified from all sins is honored in the world of Brahmā (brahmaloka).

35.
Having gone to Bhadrakarṇeśvara and worshipped the deity according to the prescribed rites, one does not experience misfortune but rather goes to the heavenly realm (svargaloka).
ततः कुब्जाम्रकं गच्छेत्तीर्थसेवी यथाक्रमम् ।

36.
Then, a pilgrim (tīrthasevī) should visit Kubjāmraka in due order. One who does so obtains the merit of giving a thousand cows and goes to the heavenly realm (svargaloka).

37.
O king (narādhipa), a pilgrim (tīrthasevī) should visit Arundhatīvaṭa. A person who touches the ocean and fasts for three nights at that spot obtains the fruit of donating a thousand cows and saves their family (kula).

38.
Then, a celibate student (brahmacārī), with a focused mind, should go to Brahmāvarta. He attains the fruit of the horse sacrifice (aśvamedha) and goes to the heavenly realm.

40.
Having reached the sacred bathing place (tīrtha) called Darvīsaṅkramaṇa, which is renowned throughout the three worlds, one obtains the fruit of the horse sacrifice (aśvamedha) and goes to the heavenly realm.

41.
And having gone to the source of the Sindhu (Indus), which is frequented by perfected beings (siddhas) and celestial musicians (gandharvas), staying there for five nights, one would find much gold.

43.
O descendant of Bharata (bhārata), having reached the river of the sages (ṛṣikulyā) and also Vasiṣṭha's sacred place, and having then passed beyond Vasiṣṭha's, all social classes (varṇas) become twice-born (dvijātayas).

48.
One should reside for a night in the great hermitage (āśrama), which grants liberation (mokṣa) from all sins. If one fasts, taking no food (nirāhāra) for one meal-time, they will dwell in auspicious worlds.

49.
By fasting according to the ṣaṣṭhakāla vow (eating only once every six periods or two days) and having dwelt for a month in a great temple (mahā-ālaya), a person whose inner self (ātman) is purified from all sins would obtain much gold.

50.
Then, upon visiting Vetāśikā, a place frequented by the Grandfather (Brahmā), one obtains the benefit of an aśvamedha sacrifice and achieves the status of Uśanas.

51.
Then, having arrived at Sundarikā-tīrtha, a sacred bathing place frequented by perfected beings (siddhas), one acquires beauty. This phenomenon was observed in ancient times.

52.
Indeed, a celibate student (brahmacārī) who has mastered his senses, upon visiting Brāhmaṇī-tīrtha, reaches the world of Brahmā (brahmaloka) in a lotus-hued vehicle.
ततश्च नैमिषं गच्छेत्पुण्यं सिद्धनिषेवितम् ।

53.
And then, one should visit Naimiṣa, a sacred place frequented by perfected beings (siddhas). There, Brahmā constantly resides, encircled by hosts of gods.
नैमिषं प्रार्थयानस्य पापस्यार्धं प्रणश्यति ।
प्रविष्टमात्रस्तु नरः सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते ॥५४॥

54.
For one who yearns for Naimiṣa, half of their sins (pāpa) are destroyed. Moreover, a person who merely enters Naimiṣa is completely freed from all sins (pāpa).

55.
There, a wise individual (dhīra) who is devoted to sacred places (tīrtha) should reside in Naimiṣa for a month. O Bhārata, all the sacred places (tīrtha) that exist on earth are indeed present in Naimiṣa.

56.
O Bhārata, a person who has performed an ablution there, being self-controlled and eating sparingly, attains the fruit of the Gavāmayana (Vedic ritual). And indeed, O best of the Bhāratas, he purifies his family up to the seventh generation.

57.
One who, devoted to fasting, gives up their vital breath (prāṇa) in Naimiṣa rejoices, residing in the celestial realm (svargaloka). This is what the wise (manīṣin) declare. Moreover, O best of kings (nṛpasattama), Naimiṣa is eternally meritorious and pure.

Having approached the Sarasvatī river, one should offer oblations to the ancestors (pitṛ) and deities (deva). Such a person rejoices in the worlds associated with Sarasvatī; there is no doubt about this.

And thereafter, a disciplined person (brahmacārī) with a concentrated mind should go to the Bāhudā river. Such a human being attains the fruit of the Devayajña (yajña), a sacrifice offered to the gods.

61.
And thereafter, one should go to the sacred Cīravatī river, which is frequented by the most pious. A person devoted to the worship of ancestors (pitṛ) and deities (deva) would attain the Vājapeya (yajña).

Upon reaching the pure, sorrowless place, one shines just like the moon. By staying there for a single night, one is honored in the celestial realm.

Thereafter, one should go to Gopratara, the excellent sacred ford (tīrtha) of the Sarayu river, where Rama ascended to heaven along with his servants, army, and conveyances.

Having abandoned one's physical body, one ascends to heaven by the inherent power (tejas) of that sacred place (tīrtha), by the grace (prasāda) of Rama, and by one's own steadfast determination (vyavasāya), O Bhārata.

In that sacred place (tīrtha), Gopratara, a person who bathes becomes one whose inner self (ātman) is completely purified from all sins, O king, and is glorified in the celestial realm.

67.
O best of Bharatas, there is a holy place (tīrtha) there worth a hundred thousand. Having performed a ritual ablution there, restrained and with regulated food intake, one attains the merit of a thousand cows, O bull among Bharatas.
ततो गच्छेत राजेन्द्र भर्तृस्थानमनुत्तमम् ।

68.
Then, O great king, one should go to the unsurpassed place of Bhartṛ. A man, O king, having bathed in Koṭitīrtha and worshipped Guha, obtains the merit of a thousand cows, and that person becomes radiant.

Then, having gone to Varanasi and worshipped the bull-bannered (Lord Shiva), a person bathing in Kapilahrada attains the fruit of a rājasūya (royal consecration sacrifice).

O king among kings, one who reaches the rare holy site associated with Mārkaṇḍeya, at the world-renowned confluence of the Gomati and Ganga rivers, obtains the fruit of the Agniṣṭoma (Vedic ritual) and indeed uplifts their entire lineage.

Then, O Bhārata, a celibate person (brahmacārī) who has mastered their senses, simply by going to Gayā, obtains the fruit of the Aśvamedha (Vedic ritual).

There, O Lord, is the renowned Akṣaya-vaṭa (imperishable banyan tree), famous throughout the three worlds. Whatever is offered there to the ancestors (pitṛ) indeed becomes everlasting.

73.
Having bathed in the great river, one should offer libations to the ancestors (pitṛ) and deities. One would then obtain imperishable (akṣaya) realms and indeed redeem one's family.

Then, one should go to Brahmā's lake, which is beautifully adorned by a forest embodying natural law (dharma). One obtains the reward of the Pauṇḍarīka sacrifice as soon as the night ends.

75.
O king of kings, a sacrificial post belonging to Brahmā is erected in that lake. Having circumambulated that post, one would obtain the reward of the Vājapeya sacrifice.

76.
Then, O king of kings, one should go to Dhenukā, who is famous throughout the world. O king, having stayed there for one night, one should offer a cow made of sesame seeds. With a soul (ātman) purified from all sins, one will certainly attain the world of Soma.

77.
O great king, there is certainly a sign (cihna) even today: a tawny cow (Kapilā) wanders on the mountain with her calf. Moreover, O Bhārata, the footprints of that cow with her calf are still visible even today.

O best among kings, king of kings, O descendant of Bharata, by touching those sacred places, whatever inauspicious action (karma) has been done is destroyed.

79.
Then, one should go to Gṛdhravaṭa, the place of the wise god (Shiva). There, after approaching Vṛṣadhvaja (Shiva), one should bathe with ashes.

80.
For a Brahmin, this act would be equivalent to having completed a twelve-year religious observance (vrata). But for other social classes (varṇa), all their sins are destroyed.

81.
From there, one should go to the Udyanta Parvata (Rising Mountain), which is filled with the sound of songs. And there, O best of Bharatas, a sacred solar mark (sāvitra pada) is seen.

There, a Brahmin who is resolute in his vows should perform the twilight worship (sandhyā). By his performance, that (single) act of sandhyā will be equivalent to one performed for twelve years.

And right there, O best among the Bharatas, is the well-known Yoni-dvāra. By going there, a person (puruṣa) becomes liberated (mokṣa) from the impurity of mixed lineages.

O King, any person who resides in Gayā for both the dark and bright lunar fortnights purifies their family up to the seventh generation. There is no doubt about this.

85.
Many sons should be desired, so that at least one of them might go to Gayā, or perform an aśvamedha (horse sacrifice), or release a blue-black bull.

86.
Then, O king, O lord of men, a pilgrim (tīrthasevī) should visit Phalgu. One obtains the fruit of the Aśvamedha (Vedic ritual) and achieves great spiritual success (siddhi).

Then, O king among kings, one should go to Dharmapṛṣṭha with a composed mind. O great king Yudhishthira, it is there that Dharma (natural law) perpetually resides. Having visited that place, one would then obtain the fruit of the Vājimedha (Vedic ritual).

O king, one should then go to the supreme sacred site (tīrtha) of Brahmā. Having worshipped Brahmā, who possesses immeasurable splendor, at that place, a person attains the reward of performing the Rājasūya and Aśvamedha (Vedic ritual)s.

O king, a pilgrim (tīrthasevī) should then go to Rājagṛha. Having bathed in the Tapoda waters (hot springs), one rejoices as if fulfilling a desire.

90.
A pure person should partake daily of the offering there for the Yakṣiṇī. By the grace of the Yakṣiṇī, one is freed from the sin of feticide.

91.
Then, having gone to Maṇināga, one would obtain the merit of giving a thousand cows. And indeed, the person who daily partakes of the offerings made to Maṇināga...

Even if such a person is bitten by a venomous snake, the poison does not spread in them. By staying there for one night, one is completely freed (mokṣa) from all sins.

93.
Then, O King, one should go to the forest of the Brahmin sage Gautama. Having bathed in Ahalyā's lake, one would attain the supreme destination. Approaching Śrī, O King, one obtains the highest prosperity.

Then, O knower of natural law (dharma), having entered the ancestral hermitage (tapovanam), he rejoices among the Guhyakas, O great king. There is no doubt about this.

O knower of natural law (dharma), there is a well there that liberates one from all sins. The four oceans are always present within that well. O king of kings, having bathed there, one would certainly not reach an unfortunate state (durgati).

O Yudhiṣṭhira, having approached Mahādeva - who is Viṣṇu, the imperishable (avyaya), and the bestower of boons - one shines just as the moon, freed from its debts (ṛṇa), shines brightly.

113.
Having gone to the hermitage (āśrama) of Bharata, which releases one from all sins, one should attend to the Kauśikī (river) there, which destroys grave transgressions. A human being (mānava) obtains the fruit of the Rājasūya Vedic ritual (yajña).

O great king, one should perform a ritual bath at the holy place (tīrtha) named Auddālaka, which is frequented by sages. By doing so, one is liberated (mokṣa) from all sins.

Similarly, having reached Champā and offered water in the Bhagirathi river, one obtains the merit of a thousand cows simply by visiting Daṇḍārka.
