Those high-souled ones are the witnesses of the universe, and are the creators of all the worlds. Even thus do they dwell in their respective quarters. By reciting their names one is cleansed of all one's sins. A person by repairing to those points becomes cleansed of all his sins and succeeds in returning home in safety'" > — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa - [Previous: 12.201.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.12.201.34) - [Next: 12.202.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.12.202.1) - [Up: 12.201](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.12.201) ## Translations (1) - [The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa~en-ganguli.12.208.2.4) — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, English ## Other recensions (2) - [Southern recension](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*southern.12.207.38) — Sanskrit - [Vulgate (Nīlakaṇṭha's text)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*vulgate.12.208.36) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.12.201.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.12.201.35) · Pramāṇa
