विष्णोर्वाममवाशंभोर्ब्राह्मणा एव सुप्रियाः । तेषां मूर्त्या वयं साक्षाद्विचरामो महीतले
viṣṇorvāmamavāśaṃbhorbrāhmaṇā eva supriyāḥ | teṣāṃ mūrtyā vayaṃ sākṣādvicarāmo mahītale
વિષ્ણુને પણ અને શંભુને પણ બ્રાહ્મણો અતિ પ્રિય છે; તેમનું જ સ્વરૂપ ધારણ કરીને અમે સ્વયં પ્રત્યક્ષ પૃથ્વી પર વિચરીએ છીએ।

Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Pilgrims/householders in Kāśī discourse
Scene: A procession of dignified Brāhmaṇas walks through Kāśī; subtle overlays of Viṣṇu and Śiva forms suggest divine presence within them; townspeople offer respectful hospitality.
Honoring Brāhmaṇas is framed as honoring living embodiments through whom divine presence operates in the world.
No single tīrtha is named; the verse supports the Kāśī Khaṇḍa’s dharma-ethos within the sacred city’s spiritual culture.
No specific rite; it prescribes reverence and service to Brāhmaṇas as a foundational dharmic practice.
