lāṃgalīśastatobhyarcyastatastu nakulīśvaraḥ | parānneśamatho natvā paradravyeśvaraṃ tataḥ
ત્યારબાદ લાંગલીશનું અર્ચન કરવું; પછી નકુલીઈશ્વરના દર્શન. પરાન્નેશને નમસ્કાર કરીને ત્યારપછી પરદ્રવ્યેશ્વર પાસે જવું.

Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim worships at Lāṃgalīśa liṅga, then visits Nakulīśvara with a subtle depiction of an ascetic teacher; then bows at Parānneśa with offerings of cooked rice/anna; finally proceeds to Paradravyeśvara where the pilgrim symbolically renounces greed, shown by leaving coins at the threshold as dāna.
Devotion in Kāśī is expressed through both worship and humility—pūjā where prescribed and pranāma as the pilgrim moves onward in sacred order.
