दंदशूकैर्भृशं दष्टो दुष्टः शिष्टैर्विगर्हितः । काष्ठेष्टलोष्टैः पापिष्ठः कृतानिष्टः सदात्मनः
daṃdaśūkairbhṛśaṃ daṣṭo duṣṭaḥ śiṣṭairvigarhitaḥ | kāṣṭheṣṭaloṣṭaiḥ pāpiṣṭhaḥ kṛtāniṣṭaḥ sadātmanaḥ
Dia digigit ular dengan teruk; dia hina dan dicela oleh orang-orang berbudi. Si paling berdosa ini, yang sentiasa memudaratkan orang baik, dipukul dengan kayu, serpihan tempayan, dan ketulan tanah.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: A sinner beset by serpents and pelted with sticks, potsherds, and clods, while virtuous elders point in censure—an image of karmic and communal correction.
Persistent harm to the righteous invites both karmic suffering and public censure, isolating the wrongdoer from dharmic society.
No tīrtha is directly praised in this verse; it supports the moral arc within Kāśīkhaṇḍa.
None; it is a description of consequences and condemnation.
