Prayagraj

Sri Vadirajaru praises Triveni as a sin-destroying, liberating Sangama and immediately praises Prayaga Madhava/Veni Madhava. Both are treated here within Prayaga Kshetra. The reference is retained here in the sequence of Sri Vadirajaru's pilgrimage so that a pilgrim can connect the present-day sacred place with the Kshetra or Tirtha praised in the Tirtha Prabandha.

Sthala Purana: Prayaga is the sacred meeting of Ganga, Yamuna and the traditionally unseen Saraswati. It is revered as Tirtharaja and as a major Madhava Kshetra. The place continues to be approached as a sacred destination in its regional pilgrimage tradition. The present guide therefore focuses on the principal deity, tirtha or sacred feature that a pilgrim can identify and visit today, without treating later local traditions as though every detail were stated by Sri Vadirajaru.

Places to See in the Kshetra: Triveni Sangam, Veni Madhava, major sacred ghats.
