जीवनं जीवनप्राणा जगज्ज्येष्ठा जगन्मयी । जीवजीवातुलतिका जन्मिजन्मनिबर्हिणी
jīvanaṃ jīvanaprāṇā jagajjyeṣṭhā jaganmayī | jīvajīvātulatikā janmijanmanibarhiṇī
Ella es la vida misma, el aliento de los seres vivientes; es la más antigua y excelsa del mundo, y el mundo mora en su propio ser. Es la esencia vital de todo lo que vive, y arranca de raíz la repetida rueda de nacimientos tras nacimientos.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Gaṅgā in Kāśī (Jīvana-prāṇa aspect)
Type: ghat
Listener: Ṛṣis / pilgrims in frame
Scene: Gaṅgā as cosmic mother whose waters appear as luminous breath entering beings; a wheel of births dissolves behind her; pilgrims on ghāṭas meditate in stillness.
The Goddess is the inner life-force and also the liberator: devotion aims not only at worldly vitality but at ending saṃsāra (repeated birth).
Kāśī is the contextual pilgrimage-field in which this liberating power is celebrated in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa.
No explicit ritual act is stated; the verse supports liberation-oriented remembrance and praise.
