O lord, food offered here to the Pitris becomes everlasting. There flows the great river of sacred water called by the name of Falgu. O best of Bharata race, there is also in this place the Kaushika abounding in various fruits and roots where the great ascetic Vishvamitra attained to Brahmanhood.
यत्र दत्तं पितृभ्योऽन्नमक्षय्यं भवति प्रभो। सा च पुण्यजला तत्र फल्गु म महानदी॥ बहुमूलफला चापि कौशिकी भरतर्षभ। विश्वामित्रोऽध्यगाद् यत्र ब्राह्मणत्वं तपोधनः॥
