Teerth ka shaabdik arth nadi paar karne ki jagah; prateek roop mein rozmarra jeevan se oonche jeevan tak paar karne ki jagah. Kam se kam 3,000 saal se, bina aadhunik saadhan, Bharatiya teerth-yaatraaon par upmahaadweep paar karte aaye, baahari yaatra jo apni aachaar-samhita wali bheetari yaatra bhi. Ek itihaaskaar ko train mein gaon ke yaatri mile jo teen mahine Rameshwaram ki yaatra karke seedhe Haridwar ja rahe the, apna aata, ghee aur cheeni lekar.

Pavitra sthal poore Bharat mein faile par jude hue. Chaar dhaam uttar, dakshin, poorab aur pashchim mein; Shiv ke 12 jyotirling aur 51 Shakti peeth poora naksha dhakte, Bangladesh aur Pakistan ke hisson tak. Shakti peethon ki kahaani mein divya maata Sati ka shareer tukdon mein bhoomi par gira, to poori bhoomi divya maata ka shareer ban jaati. Aise jaal pavitra bhoogol banaate.

Uttar–dakshin aur poorab–pashchim chalte yaatri alag bhaasha, reeti, kapde aur khaane se mile, phir bhi saajhaapan dekha. Vyaapaari, guru dhoondhte chhaatra aur bahas chaahne wale vichaarak usi maarg par chalte. Unki baatcheet, kahaaniyaan aur saamaan sabko samriddh karte, aur ye aadaan-pradaan upmahaadweep ke saanskritik ekeekaran ki badi shakti bana. Jaisa ek neta ne kaha, logon ko in yaatraaon par Bharat bhar kheenchne wali "ek desh aur ek sanskriti ki bhaavna" thi.
