Skanda Purana — Kashi Khanda, Shloka 39
स हि सर्वप्रदः शंभुर्याचितश्चोपमन्युना । पयोमात्रं ददौ तस्मै सर्वं क्षीराब्धिमेव च
sa hi sarvapradaḥ śaṃbhuryācitaścopamanyunā | payomātraṃ dadau tasmai sarvaṃ kṣīrābdhimeva ca
কাৰণ শম্ভুৱেই সৰ্বপ্ৰদাতা। উপমন্যুৱে যেতিয়া প্ৰাৰ্থনা কৰিলে, তেতিয়া তেওঁ তাক কেৱল গাখীৰ দিলে—আচলতে সম্পূৰ্ণ ক্ষীৰসাগৰেই দান কৰিলে।
Skanda (deduced; Kāśīkhaṇḍa narrative convention)
Tirtha: Kāśī (Viśveśvara’s grace illustrated via Upamanyu)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Upamanyu, austere yet childlike in devotion, asks for milk; Śambhu appears and grants not only milk but the vast Ocean of Milk—depicted as a cosmic sea emerging from Śiva’s blessing gesture.
FAQs
Śiva’s generosity exceeds the devotee’s request; even small petitions can open into immeasurable grace.
Not a specific tīrtha by name in this verse; it supports the Kāśī-māhātmya theme by praising Śambhu/Viśveśvara’s boundless giving.
None explicitly; the focus is on prayer/request (yācñā) and the Lord’s response.
