भिल्ली हल्लीसकप्रीति झिल्लीरावविराविणम् । क्वचित्सरः परिसरक्रीडत्क्रोडकदंबकम्
bhillī hallīsakaprīti jhillīrāvavirāviṇam | kvacitsaraḥ parisarakrīḍatkroḍakadaṃbakam

A sacred place harmonizes all beings—plants, insects, and animals—into a living testimony of dharma and divine order.
The verse highlights lakes and surrounding groves within the Kāśī sacred region described in this adhyāya.
None; it is a topographical and ecological glorification.
