ʰ屹īīٳ (प्रभावतीतीर्�) is the name of a īٳ (sacred bathing place) that is associated with the 峾ś Liṅga (symbolical manifestation of Śiva). This place represents the fourteenth of the sixty-four 󲹱ṅg mentioned in the Nepalese Tyasaphu (a folding book or leporello). At each of these spots Śiva is manifest as a Liṅga. Each of these ṅg has its own specific name, mantra, set of rituals and observances, auspicious time etc.

The auspiscious time for bathing at the Prabhāvatī-tīrtha near the Rāma-īśvara-liṅga is mentioned as “caitra-pūrṇimā� (latin: caitra-purnima). This basically represents the recommended day for bathing there (Բ徱Բ).
