भवप्रिया भवद्वेष्टी भूतिदा भूतिभूषणा । भाललोचनभावज्ञा भूतभव्यभवत्प्रभुः
bhavapriyā bhavadveṣṭī bhūtidā bhūtibhūṣaṇā | bhālalocanabhāvajñā bhūtabhavyabhavatprabhuḥ
ती भव (शिव) यांची प्रिया असून भवबंधनाचा द्वेष करणारी आहे। ती ऐश्वर्य देणारी व ऐश्वर्याने भूषित; भाललोचन (शिव) यांचा भाव जाणणारी, आणि भूत-भव्य-वर्तमानाची अधीश्वरी आहे।
Skanda
Tirtha: Gaṅgā in Śiva-kṣetra (Kāśī)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Gaṅgā Devī near Śiva-liṅga of Viśveśvara; Śiva with third eye (bhāla-locana) gazing; Gaṅgā shown as bestowing prosperity yet cutting bonds of becoming; a subtle time-wheel motif for past-present-future sovereignty.
Divine love aligns with Śiva, while spiritual maturity rejects bondage to becoming; the Goddess governs time and grants auspicious welfare.
In Kāśīkhaṇḍa, Śiva-Śakti praise implicitly magnifies Kāśī as Śiva’s city where liberation from bhava is emphasized.
No explicit ritual; the verse supports Śiva-Śakti upāsanā through praise and remembrance.
