Fruits and gold, in particular, are to be offered as gifts, for such acts of charity bring great merit. Bathing on the fourteenth day of the dark fortnight yields abundant results, and, especially in the sacred month of Magha, this day is set aside for an annual pilgrimage. On this occasion, one should bathe, uttering with a pure heart, “May the world, from Brahma down to a blade of grass, be satisfied.” O Yaksha, one who follows this path is never deluded. After bathing in these holy waters, O Yaksha, worship must be performed before the sacred presence. The worship mantra to be recited is: “Salutation to Pramatharaja.” The treasures and Lakshmis are to be worshipped here, especially for your sake, O Yaksha. Those who seek wealth will obtain wealth, and those who desire a son will be blessed with a son. But if a man, out of ignorance, neglects this purifying bath, O Yaksha, he loses these blessings. It was thus that the great sage Vishvamitra, having bestowed boons, sanctified this place. From that time onward, the site attained supreme renown, shining brilliantly, adorned on all sides with clusters of divine jewels. To the north of the abode of the Yaksha of wealth, in that sacred direction, the ever-resident sage Vasishtha—himself a treasure-house of austerity—dwells. Here, after performing the Śrāddha, one should bathe with unwavering attention. In this holy place, the presence of Vāmadeva is also found, O sinless one. The devoted wife, Arundhati, is especially worthy of worship here. There is no doubt that all desired fruits are attained at this spot. In the month of Bhādra, on the fifth day of the bright fortnight, with steadfast observance, worship of Vishnu must be performed here with care and faith. At Vasishtha’s pool, situated in the eastern quarter, by bathing and giving, all desires are fulfilled. On the full moon, the merit gained by bathing in the ocean is matched here. Therefore, one should bathe according to the prescribed method, especially if desiring a son. Thus, a wise man who acts in this way is freed from all sins. In the southwest quarter from the ocean lies the excellent Yoginī pool. The Yoginīs there grant the fulfillment of all aims for people, and especially for women. This is especially true on the eighth day of the bright fortnight of the month of Āśvina. Here, bathing and giving gifts all become fruitful. Before the Yoginī Lake lies the excellent Urvaśī Lake. Long ago, there lived a wise sage named Raibhya, rich in austerity. His great penances caused fear in the heart of the lord of the gods. Thus, the lord sent her of the graceful gait—Urvaśī herself. She arrived in a forest bower, where blossoming creepers wove a fragrant canopy, and sweet-voiced birds sang melodious songs. Amidst cages woven from the filaments of punnāga, keśara, and aśoka flowers, she shone as the very treasury of all charms for the god of love. Adorned with white pearls, her limbs gleamed with golden radiance. Her complexion was bright as the waves, the corners of her eyes highlighted by upward-curving lashes. Mango blossoms, heavy with bees, buzzed near her earrings. Slender at the waist, broad-hipped, with prominent breasts of radiant color, she embodied all the allure that heaven could bestow.
