Brahma Deva briefed the formal procedure of worship at Pancha Tirthas (Indradyumna Sarovara, Markandeyahlada, Akshaya Vata, Sweta Madhava and Samudra) viz. Snaana, Daana, Darshana and Puja of Parama Shiva and Vishnu Rupas to the Munis at Naimishaaranya as conveyed by Suta Muni. On entering the Markandeya Hrida, a devotee should face Northern Direction and perform three dips in water navel- deep, reciting the following: Samsaara saagarey magnam Paapagrasta machetanam, Traahi maam Bhaganetraghna Tripuraarey namostutey/ Namah Shivaaya Shaantaaya Sarva paapa haraayacha, Snaanam karomi Devesha mama Nashyatu paatakam/ (Bhaganetra Naashaka Shiva! Tripuraasura Shatru! Shanta Swarupa! I am deeply engaged in Samsaara; protect me from my sins and grant me benevolence). After the Snaana, formal Tarpana should be performed to Devas, Rishis and Pitras; then the devotees should enter the ShivaTemple, perform three Pradakshinas, recite Markandeswaraaya Namah and Mula Mantra / Aghora Mantra and invoke Paramashiva with the following: Trilochana Namastestu Namastey Shahi Bhushana, Traahi maam twam Virupaaksha Mahadeva Namostutey/   Aftrer formal worship was concluded the Shiva Linga, then three parikramaas be performed to a Vata Vriksha by saying: Om Namo-Avyakta Swarupaaya Mahaa Praaya kaariney, Mahdrasamopavishtaaya Nyagrodhaaya Namostuey/ Amaratwam sadaa kalpey Hareshchaayatanam Vata, Nyagrodha Hara mey paapam Kalpavriksha Namostutey/

Pradakshinas of the Vata Vriksha Vishnu Rupa and Garuda Rupa signifying the Paralaya Vata Vriksha of  Bala Mukunda would  yield the Mahaphala of Mukti from Brahmahatyaadi paatakaas, besides bestowing the Ashwamedha Yagna Phala. Following the Vata Vriksha Parikrama, the devotee would then feast his /her eyes with the darshana of Shri Krishna, Balarama and Devi Subhadra: first worship Balabhadra reciting the hymn: Namastey Haladhrugraama namastey Musalaayudha, Namstey Revatikaanta Namastey Bhaktavatsala/ Namastey Balinaam Shreshtha namasty Dharaneedhara, Pralambaarey Namostu traahi maam Krishna purvaja! Pursuant to Babhadra Puja, the devotee would then be engrossed with the recital of Dwadashaaksharan Mantra viz. Om Bhagavatey Vaasudevaaya and execute the formal Puja to Shri Krishna Deva with Gandha-Pushpa-Dhupa-Deepa-Phala- Naivedya-Kirtana- Natya and Pranaamas, followed by the following:  

Jaya Krishna Jagannatha Jayasarvaagha naashana,

Jaya Chanura Keshighna Jaya Kamsa nishudana/

Jaya Padma Palaashaaksha Jaya chakra Gadaa- dhara,

Jaya Nilaamubuda shyaama Jaya sarva Sukhaprada/ 

Jayadeva Jagatpujya Jaya samsara naashana,

Jayalokapatey naatha Jayavaanchaa phalaprada/

Samsaara saagarey ghorey nissarey duhkha pheniley,

Krodhagraahaakuley Roudrey Vishayodaka samplavey/

Naanaarogormikaliley mahaavarta sudustarey,

Nimagnoham Sura shreshta Traahimaam Purushotthama/

Evam Prasaadya Devesam Varadam Bhaktavatsalam,

Sarva Paapa haram Devam sarva kaama phalapradam/

Peenaamsam Dwibhujam Krishnam Padmapatraayatekshanam,

Mahoraskam Mahabaahum Peetavastram Shubhaananam/

Sankhachakra gadaa paanim Makutaangada bhushanam,

Sarva lakshana Samyuktam Vanamaalaa vibhushitam/

Any person performed Krishna Stuti as above would indeed accomplish the fruits of Ashvamedha Yagnaas and Sarva Tirha Darshana- Veda-Yagna-Daana-Vrata-Niyama-Tapasya and Brahmacharya! Finally, a devotee should pray to Subhadra Devi as follows: Namastey Sarvage Devi namastey Shubha Soukhyadey, Traahi maam Pancha Patraakshi Katyaayani Namostutey/ A devotee would thus complete the darshanas of Subhadra Devi too.
