Where the Yamunā, ever pure and constant, flows unchanging, there lies a place of great sanctity. When one reaches the confluence of the Gaṅgā at Prayāga, renowned across the earth as the Veṇī, the Yamunā is celebrated there, O goddess, and no further inquiry is needed to recognize its holiness. In these sacred waters, wherever one bathes, O Devi, that person is honored in my world. Such a soul is not reborn among mortals; instead, he is granted a divine birth, four-armed, and departing from life at that place, he attains my realm. Whoever bathes there, O goddess, reaches my world. Having seen the deity and freed from all fatigue, he obtains that fruit, O Devi. Bathing there bestows the same merit as at the holy place called Viśrānti. By making two circumambulations, one goes to Viṣṇu’s world. O Devi, whoever bathes there attains my realm and receives the fruit of an Agniṣṭoma sacrifice. If one gives up life in that place, he surely reaches my world. Even by merely bathing, he rejoices in the heights of heaven and is honored in my realm. O Devi, in the land of the Pāñcālas, there is the foremost city, Kāmpilya. In that place lived a barber named Tiṃduka. Over a long period, his family fell into ruin. Abandoning all attachments, Tiṃduka journeyed to Mathurā. There, after performing a hundred deeds and bathing in the Yamunā river, he eventually reached the end of his life. In that splendid house was a Brāhmaṇa, foremost among yogis, who, by the power of that holy place, attained the rare liberation. Once, the mighty Vairochana worshipped the Sun. With arms raised and fasting, he performed supreme austerity. The blessed Lord, the radiant Sun, pleased with his devotion, spoke to him. Bali said, “Even lacking wealth, I have supported my family.” Then, from his crown, the Sun bestowed upon him a wish-fulfilling gem. A man who bathes at that holy place is freed from all sins. Especially on the day of the sun, at the time of the solstice, or during an eclipse of the moon or sun, where, by one’s own will, the highest austerity is performed with intense discipline, if one gives up life there, he is honored in my world. He uplifts all his ancestors, especially during the fortnight of the ancestors. O Devi, a man who bathes there attains my world and the world of the sages. To the south of the Sage’s Ford lies my supreme Moksha Ford. There indeed is Koti Ford, which is difficult to attain even for the gods. Having bathed at Koti Ford and satisfied the ancestors and deities, a man who bathes there is honored in the world of Brahma. By offering oblations there, he goes to the world of the ancestors; O Devi, he obtains that fruit, especially by giving gifts in the month of Jyeshtha, without doubt.
