وفي الجهة الجنوبية من مقام الإله كان ماء «ذات الجداول الأربعة» (Catuḥsrotasvinī). وقد أضناهما العطش، أيها البرهمن، فشرب الطائران منه، وأحيانًا اغتسلا هناك أيضًا.
Skanda (deduced, Kāśīkhaṇḍa context) speaking to Agastya
Tirtha: Catuḥsrotasvinī
Type: kund
Listener: Vipra (addressed ‘vipra’)
Scene: South of the shrine, a small sacred watercourse or pool with four visible channels; two birds bend to drink and occasionally splash-bathe, with the temple looming nearby.
Sacred waters near a Śiva-sthāna purify and sustain—linking bodily need with spiritual merit.
The Catuḥsrotasvinī water-site/tīrtha located in the southern sector of the deity’s (Trilocana’s) shrine area.
Snāna (bathing) and pāna (drinking) in the tīrtha-water, implying its sanctifying value.
