अजिनांबरदिग्वासः स्वर्धुनी क्लिन्नमौलिज । विरूपाक्षाहिनेपथ्य गृणन्नामावलीमिमाम्
ajināṃbaradigvāsaḥ svardhunī klinnamaulija | virūpākṣāhinepathya gṛṇannāmāvalīmimām
जो अजिन-वस्त्रधारी व दिशांनाच वस्त्र मानणारे, ज्यांची जटा स्वर्धुनीने ओलसर, जे विरूपाक्ष व सर्पालंकृत—अशा शिवाची ही नामावली जपावी.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda speaking to Agastya)
Tirtha: Gaṅgā in Kāśī / Kāśī-kṣetra
Type: ghat
Scene: Śiva as the archetypal digambara ascetic: skin-garment, directions as clothing, jaṭā wet with Gaṅgā, serpents as adornment, the striking third eye; a devotee chants a nāmāvali with rosary near the river.
Contemplating Śiva’s sacred form supports focused recitation of His names and steadies devotion.
Kāśī is the overarching sacred geography of the chapter; Gaṅgā is invoked as Śiva’s heavenly river.
Recitation of a nāmāvalī (garland of divine names), supported by meditative visualization of Śiva.
