जीवनं जीवनप्राणा जगज्ज्येष्ठा जगन्मयी । जीवजीवातुलतिका जन्मिजन्मनिबर्हिणी
jīvanaṃ jīvanaprāṇā jagajjyeṣṭhā jaganmayī | jīvajīvātulatikā janmijanmanibarhiṇī
അവൾ ജീവിതം തന്നേ, ജീവികളുടെ പ്രാണശക്തി; അവൾ ജഗത്തിന്റെ ജ്യേഷ്ഠയും ജഗന്മയിയും. അവൾ സർവ്വജീവികളുടെ ജീവരസലതിക; ജന്മജന്മാന്തര ചക്രത്തെ വേരോടെ നീക്കുന്നവൾ.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Gaṅgā in Kāśī (Jīvana-prāṇa aspect)
Type: ghat
Listener: Ṛṣis / pilgrims in frame
Scene: Gaṅgā as cosmic mother whose waters appear as luminous breath entering beings; a wheel of births dissolves behind her; pilgrims on ghāṭas meditate in stillness.
The Goddess is the inner life-force and also the liberator: devotion aims not only at worldly vitality but at ending saṃsāra (repeated birth).
Kāśī is the contextual pilgrimage-field in which this liberating power is celebrated in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa.
No explicit ritual act is stated; the verse supports liberation-oriented remembrance and praise.
