Skandapurana 16.231

Īśvara said: / Then, O great goddess, one should go where the Jāmbavatī river is. / Formerly, she who was known as Jāmbavatī, the beloved queen of Viṣṇu, / the chaste woman, asked Arjuna: 'Tell the news, O uplifter of the Kurus!'

Hearing her words, Arjuna, sighing repeatedly, / spoke these words in a voice choked with tears:

'We have been abandoned, O blessed lady, by the high-souled Yādavas,

by the heroic Baladeva and by the high-souled Sātyaki,

and by the other heroes of the Yadus. Being exceedingly cruel and of sinful deeds, / desiring to live, I have arrived here, rejected by Vāsudeva.'

Hearing of the death of her husband from Arjuna, the exceedingly faithful wife, / glowing like fire, ignited a fire on the bank of the Gaṅgā, / abandoned her noble body, and went forth having become a river.

Taking all the ashes of her husband from the funeral pyre, O goddess, / the chaste, auspicious Jāmbavatī then entered the ocean.

Whatever woman performs a ritual ablution there with devotion, O queen of gods, / no woman whatsoever in her lineage shall ever suffer widowhood.

Therefore, by every effort one should perform a ritual ablution there; / whether a man or a woman, one attains the supreme state.

Thus ends the two hundred and thirty-first chapter, entitled 'Description of the Māhātmya of the Jāmbavatī River', in the first [part], the Prabhāsakṣetramāhātmya, of the seventh [section], the Prabhāsakhaṇḍa, in the glorious Skandapurāṇa, a compendium of eighty-one thousand [verses].
