Narrator (Skanda in Kāśīkhaṇḍa context); quoted speech begins next verses
Tirtha: Jñānavāpī
Type: kund
Scene: Inside a royal or noble household, attendant women with bright faces bow to the virtuous Kalāvatī, hands folded, seeking guidance toward the sacred well of Kāśī.
Purāṇic dharma honors sanctity recognized in others—devotees respond to spiritual attainment with reverence and service.
Contextually Jñānavāpī in Kāśī, whose power has just been described.
Praṇāma (bowing) and respectful address to the virtuous are modeled as devotional conduct.
