O best of the Bharata race, it is known as the gate of Kurukshetra. The pilgrim with subdued soul should walk round it. It was created by the illustrious son of Jamadagni, Rama. It is equal to the Pushkara. O king, bathing in it and worshipping the Pitris and the celestials, he becomes successful in everything and obtains the fruits of Ashvamedha sacrifice. Then the pilgrim should go with subdued soul to Ramahrada.
कुरुक्षेत्रस्य तद् द्वारं विश्रुतं भरतर्षभ। प्रदक्षिणमुपावृत्य तीर्थसेवी समाहितः॥ सम्मितं पुष्कराणां च स्नात्वार्य पितृदेवताः। जामदग्न्येन रामेण कृतं तत् सुमहात्मना॥ कृतकृत्यो भवेद् राजन्नश्वमेधं च विन्दति। ततो रामह्रदान गच्छेत् तीर्थसेवी समाहितः॥
