(f) One 'Upavas' will gain 'Punya' of 'Maskhaman' (30 'Upavas').
(18) A person who completes seven pilgrimages of Shri Shatrunjay, observing a 'Chaththa' without drinking water, will attain the 'Moksha' at the third birth.
(19) Even today it is observed that one who performs 'Anashan' on Shatrunjay will reach the heaven happily even if he has no prior Sadhana'.
(20) By offering a 'Chhatra', a 'Dhwaja' (flag), a hand-fan, a 'Chammar (Chouri tail), and a 'Thal' (dish) at Shatrunjay one becomes a Vidyadhara, whereas by donating a chariot he becomes 'Chakravarti'.
(21) At this Tirtha' one attains the 'Punya' of a 'Upavas' by offering a garland of ten flowers, two 'Upavas' with a 20's, three with the 30's four with the 40's and 'Punya' of five 'Upavas' by garlanding 50
flowers.
(22) At this 'Tirtha', by offering 'Dhupa' (Krishnaguru etc.) one gains 'Punya' of 15 'Upavas', by offering camphor one gains 'Punya' of 'Maskhaman' (30 fasts), while offering the needed things to a monk one gets 'Punya' of a few 'Maskhamanas'.
(23) On Shri Shatrunjay just by performing 'Prakshal' and 'Pooja' one attains 'Punya' which is more than that of offering gold, land or ornaments at other 'Tirthas'.
