O best of the Bharata race, it is well-known there is in that Tirtha, ten millions of Tirthas. O king of kings, a wicked-minded Asura in the form of a tortoise, was stealing it away, when, O king, it was recovered from hiin by Vishnu. O hero steady in war, bathing in that Tirtha. One obtains the fruits of Pundarika (sacrifice) and goes to the region of Vishnu.
तत्र कोटिस्तु तीर्थानां विश्रुता भरतर्षभ। कूर्मरूपेण राजेन्द्र ह्यसुरेण दुरात्मना॥ ह्रियमाणा हृता राजन् विष्णुना प्रभविष्णुना। तत्राभिषेकं कुर्वीत तीर्थकोट्यां युधिष्ठिर॥ पुण्डरीकमवाप्नोति विष्णुलोकं च गच्छति।
