87.1

The venerable Mārkaṇḍeya said: / Then one should go, O king, to the exceedingly splendid pilgrimage place / established by the assemblies of sages born of Brahmā's lineage,

87.2

named Ṛṇamocana, situated on the bank of the Revā. / A person who satisfies the ancestors and deities with devotion for six months,

87.3

is immediately freed from the debt owed to gods, ancestors, and human beings, / and from that contracted by oneself, when he has bathed in the waters of the Narmadā.

87.4

Misfortune is seen there visibly in the form of [its] fruit. / At that pilgrimage place, O king, whoever with single-minded focus and controlled senses,

87.5

having bathed, gives gifts and worships the husband of the Mountain's Daughter, / is completely freed from the three debts and shines like a god in heaven.

|| Thus ends the eighty-seventh chapter, named 'Description of the Glorification of the Ṛṇatrayamocana Pilgrimage Place', in the Revākhaṇḍa of the Āvantyakhaṇḍa, the fifth [book] in the venerable Skanda Mahāpurāṇa consisting of eighty-one thousand verses.
