संस्थानं कीदृशं तस्यास्तस्यां के च महीभुजः । कानि तीर्थानि पुण्यानि माहात्म्यं तेषु कीदृशम्
saṃsthānaṃ kīdṛśaṃ tasyāstasyāṃ ke ca mahībhujaḥ | kāni tīrthāni puṇyāni māhātmyaṃ teṣu kīdṛśam
Wie ist ihre Anlage und Gestalt? Und welche Könige herrschen in jener Stadt? Welche heiligen, verdienstvollen Tīrthas gibt es dort, und wie ist die ihnen eigene Größe?
Ṛṣis (sages)
Tirtha: Ayodhyā (internal tīrthas to be enumerated)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis
Scene: A conceptual ‘map’ scene: sages ask about Ayodhyā’s shape, its kings, and its holy bathing spots—like opening a sacred atlas.
Understanding a holy place includes its sacred landscape, its righteous history, and the tīrthas that embody dharma and merit.
Ayodhyā broadly; specific tīrthas are requested but not yet named in this verse.
None directly; the verse seeks details that typically guide pilgrimage practice.
