snātvā vai śuklatīrthe tu hyarcayet vṛṣabhadhvajam.
kapālapūraṇaṃ kṛtvā tuṣyatyatra maheśvaraḥ .. 192.27
Mârakaṇḍeya said:—Bhargaveśa tîrtha should be visited where the Lord Śiva destroyed the valiant demons when they proved troublesome to This most sacred Śukla-tīrtha is adored by the Ṛiṣis, one who bathes there is not re-born. There after bathing one should worship Śiva. The ardhâṅga image of the Lord and the Goddess should be inscribed on a slab of wood and worshipped, accompanied by the music of conches and cymbals and the recitations of the Vedas. The devotee should not sleep in the night. He should observe festivities and get sacred songs sung. On the following morning he should bathe at the Śukla-tīrtha and worship Śiva again.—26-29.
