v2.c17.46

“Vāsudeva returned: ‘Even here existeth in front of thee thy Maṇikarṇī, destroyer of sins (Pāpanāśinī)²³ covered by rocks and overgrown with bushes and creepers. Neither does Nārada know this, nor Śeṣa (Ananta). I alone know it, and you have learnt it now from me. Your Jāhnavī also exists here, she the blessed, born of my feet, to the south-east of me, under the name of Gaṅgā-yamunā. For me there are other sacred pools about this place, all great secrets, the knowledge of which I shall hereafter impart to you. Now Śamkara give me your solemn pledge.’
