O wise sage, listen with reverence to the sacred account. In that holy place, whoever offers land as a donation—be it a single cow, a single wish, or even the smallest measure of land, such as a finger’s breadth; or a cow, a horse, sesame seeds, cloth, a vessel, or a copper milking pot—those who make these gifts to the Brahmins secure worlds that are forever inexhaustible. At this site dwells the goddess who removes the sins of all worlds. Whoever bathes there and respectfully beholds the backs of the divine mothers, after honoring them, should continue along the path. No matter whether one is in their own land or another’s, upon mountains or in forests, in times of affliction caused by planets or in fear from kings and similar troubles—whoever addresses the goddess, especially if a Brahmin, attains the fruit they desire. Bathing before the goddess brings the highest accomplishment. If one bathes with a fruit-filled pot in front of the goddess, following the prescribed rites, a son is born to him, just as the six-faced god. A man who bathes there becomes endowed with beauty, good fortune, and prosperity. It was King Purūravas, descendant of Ila, who obtained these blessings. When he established this place, he gained a celestial nymph as his wife. Tell me, O sage, how Purūravas came to wed that heavenly maiden, for I am eager to hear the true account. While Purūravas and Urvaśī were residing at Badarikāśrama, Indra, the king of gods, became fearful. Those instructed by Maghavat (Indra) gathered to create obstacles for the pair. They came to cause hindrance, and at that time, the two divine sages, Nara and Nārāyaṇa, conversed. After their discussion, Nara spoke to Nārāyaṇa, and with the blossom of the mango tree, fashioned a woman with thighs like those of a lady. When this woman arose, radiant like fire and of exquisite beauty, Śakra (Indra), upon hearing their words, went and spoke to the gods, expressing his desire: “I wish for this woman; let her favor be granted.” By the power of their words, they offered Urvaśī to him. Because she was born from the mango blossom, she became known as Urvaśī. Then Indra went to heaven, summoned Citrāngada, and instructed him, “Let this be done quickly, making every effort.” Urvaśī became skilled, excelling in dance and song, and thus dwelt in the mansion of the gods. The righteous son of Ila, Purūravas, saw Urvaśī dancing before Vāsava (Indra). Passionate Purūravas, upon witnessing her, composed his mind with courage and remained steady for a moment. Yet, leaving that place, he was overwhelmed with desire and greatly agitated. Regaining awareness of himself, he rose from the earth’s surface. Purūravas went to that land, recalling it in his mind. He entered Citrāngada’s house and sent a messenger along with him. Heaven, deprived of Urvaśī, became empty even for the gods. Purūravas, too, bereft of her, wandered with an empty heart. In his longing, he visited the holy places and eventually reached the great forest of Time.
