5. Pabhāsa A sacred place situated on the shore of the sea touching the Surattha country. It was named Pabhāsa after the illumination made by the lord of the Lavaņa ocean at this place to celebrate the liberation of Mati and Sumati(3), two daughters of Pamdusena whose dead bodies were washed ashore. They were proceeding to mount Settumja on a pilgrimage but their ship sank in the way.1 Pilgrims visiting this place used to participate in community-feasts (samkhadi).
