Mārkaṇḍeya (narrating)
Tirtha: Kapilā Tīrtha
Type: kund
Listener: Rājā (Bhārata)
Scene: Close-up iconographic vision of Kapilā: horns like tongues of flame, a third eye on the forehead, abundant udders symbolizing plenty; the face and eyes glow like fire, with heat-haze around the body.
The sacred is portrayed as both nourishing (milk) and purifying-transformative (fire), revealing tīrtha power as simultaneously gentle and formidable.
Kapilā-tīrtha, whose greatness is anchored in the fiery, auspicious manifestation of Kapilā.
No direct prescription here; it provides a visionary description supporting the tīrtha’s extraordinary sanctity.
