Kāṣṭhīla-Upākhyāna: Rākṣasī, Spear-Śakti, and Kāśī as Śakti-kṣetra
इयं त्वत्संगिनी भार्या भविष्यति वरानना । सापि तिर्यग्गतिं प्राप्य मुच्यते मदनुग्रहात् ॥ ७५ ॥
iyaṃ tvatsaṃginī bhāryā bhaviṣyati varānanā | sāpi tiryaggatiṃ prāpya mucyate madanugrahāt || 75 ||
এই সুন্দরমুখী নারী তোমার সঙ্গিনী ও পত্নী হবে। আর সে—তির্যক্ যোনিতে পতিত হলেও—আমার অনুগ্রহে মুক্তি পাবে।
A divine authority figure (granting a boon) within the Adhyaya’s narrative; traditionally aligned with a Vishnu-centered grace motif in Uttara-Bhaga
Vrata: none
Rasa: {"primary_rasa":"adbhuta","secondary_rasa":"shanta","emotional_journey":"A boon-like declaration moves from relational fulfillment (companionship in marriage) to a wondrous salvific promise: liberation even from an animal birth through grace."}
It teaches that divine grace (anugraha) can redeem even severe karmic outcomes—such as falling into tiryag-gati—granting release and spiritual restoration.
The verse foregrounds anugraha (grace), a central bhakti principle: liberation is not only a mechanical result of merit, but can also arise through the compassionate intervention of the divine when one is connected to a sacred narrative, vow, or tirtha context.
No specific Vedanga (like Vyakarana or Jyotisha) is directly taught; the practical takeaway is doctrinal—understanding gati (destinies of birth) and anugraha as key categories in Purāṇic dharma and moksha teaching.
