Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī-kṣetra (Gaṅgā-ghāṭa śrāddha-sthāna)
Type: ghat
Scene: A learned ritualist recites mantras and performs pitṛ-tarpaṇa, śrāddha, and piṇḍa offerings on a leaf/plate at a Kāśī ghāṭa; assistants arrange darbha, sesame, and vessels.
Dharma is not only intention but correct practice: mantra-recitation joined with tarpaṇa, śrāddha, and piṇḍa-dāna constitutes ritual expertise and yields reliable merit.
Within Kāśī’s setting, the rites are implicitly tied to Gaṅgā’s sanctity, elaborated in the surrounding verses.
Recite the specified mantras, then perform pitṛ-tarpaṇa, śrāddha, and piṇḍa-pradāna.
