With deep reverence, he bowed at the great one’s feet, circumambulated him, and offered the highest respect. Then Tvaṣṭṛ, the divine artisan, addressed him gently, “She has come to your house, dear one, following the path I have shown.” When Tvaṣṭṛ spoke these words, the mind of Ravi—the Sun—became troubled and restless. “What shall I do? Where shall I go? Where is my beloved?” he wondered, his heart aching with longing. Tvaṣṭṛ then explained, “Your radiance has been diminished, broken, and has wandered elsewhere, deprived of its strength.” He urged, “Now, let it please you fully; do what must be done.” Hearing these words, the Sun god’s mind was stirred, and Tvaṣṭṛ, with divine skill, fashioned the Sudarśana from a single blade of grass. With but a touch of its edge, Tvaṣṭā created it for Vivasvat, the Sun. In the presence of the Sun, Tvaṣṭā spoke sweetly, “O best of gods, let it be taken; let it swiftly go to the meadow. Where the union of both occurs, there is surely liberation.” Hearing these words, Savitā, the all-radiant one, made his way to the sacred confluence where the river Śiprā, rich with waters, joins with Kṣātāsaṃgama. There, arriving, he beheld his beloved wife, who had taken the form of a mare. At that very place, by merely the act of smelling with the nose, both sons were born. There, Chāyā gave birth to twins, O best of the twice-born. When Saturn is in conjunction, all desires are fulfilled, and his fortune, held in his hand, always arises upon the earth. By worshipping the lord of the immovable, all sins are destroyed. Among the sons of Chāyā are Piṅga, Babhru, Sthāvara, and Pippalāyana. He who is devoted is never afflicted by the slow-moving Saturn. In the northern part of the sacrificial altar, where Maruti—the son of the wind—stands, he attained supreme accomplishment through his austerities. His dwelling was adorned with jewels and decorated with the finest gold, most excellent in every way. Having crossed over to the realm of the Mothers, he is honored in the world of Brahma. At the sacred place of Dharma, the righteous perform holy acts such as bathing and giving gifts. At the hermitage of Cyavana, a person should bathe and behold the Lord of Cyavana, and by his grace, they attain the company of the gods. At that holy place, O best of the twice-born, a person receives divine vision. There, the highly fortunate and world-renowned Sāvitrī follows the Sun. Therefore, Vyāsa, the supreme sacred place is known as Kṣātāsaṃgama. Whoever hears this sacred story on earth with devotion gains, especially on festival days, merit equal to that of a thousand Kapila cows. Among all holy places, the foremost is renowned by the name Gayā. There, by bathing daily, one is freed from the three debts owed by every human being. The hermitage of Cyavana is sacred, as is the holy Rājagiri. How did it become known in that auspicious region of Mahākālavana? Merely by hearing of it, one’s ancestors attain the highest state. Long ago, in the virtuous Kṛta Yuga, at the dawn of the ages, by the name of the gods, he—while properly protecting his subjects—regarded them as his own sons. Thus, the glory of these sacred places and deeds is revealed, conferring blessings upon all who hear and honor them.
