Narrative voice
Tirtha: Dvārakā (within Prabhāsa narrative ambit)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Kuśa mounts a chariot at speed, weapons ready, yet his mind turns inward in devotion to Śiva—Pināka-bearing, bull-bannered.
Even amid conflict, remembrance (smaraṇa) of the deity is portrayed as the inner anchor that guides action within dharma.
The narrative frame remains Muktitīrtha in Dvārakā Māhātmya.
A mental practice: deity-remembrance (manasā saṃsmaraṇa) of Śiva.
