The Vow and the Sacred Places of the Dev�

Page 1

The Him�lay�s said:--"O on this earth that are prominent, sacred, and worth visiting and which Thou likest best. O Mother! Also sanctify us by describing the vows and utsabs that are pleasing to Thee, and by performing which, men become blessed and get themselves satisfied.

The Dev� spoke:--"O Himavan! All the places that are on this earth are all Mine and all should be visited. And every moment is fit for taking vows and utsabs. For I am of the nature pervading every moment; so whatever actions are performed at any moment are all equal to taking My vows and utsabs. O King of Mountains! Still I am now telling something out of My affection to My Bhaktas. Hear. There is a great place of pilgrimage named Kolh�pura in the southern country. Here the Dev� Laksmi always dwells. The second place is M�tripura in the Sahy�dr� mountain; here the Dev� Renuk� dwells. The third place is Tulaj�pur; next is the place Saptas'ringa, the great places of Hingul� and Jv�l� Mukh�. Then the great places of S�kambhar�, Bhr�m�ri, S'r�raktadantik� and D�rg�. The best of all places is that of Vindhy�chala V�sin�, the great places of Annapurn� and the excellent K�nchipur (Conjiverum). Next come the placesof Bh�m� Dev�, Vimal� Dev�, S'r� Chandral� Dev� of Karn�t, andthe place of Kaus'ik�. Then the great placeof N�l�mb� on the top of the N�l�parvata, the place of J�mb�nades'var�, and the beautiful S'r�nagara.
