Skanda Purana — Kashi Khanda, Shloka 30

Devanagari script

योसि सोसि नमस्तुभ्यमुपदेशेन युंक्ष्व माम् । गुरूक्तं गुरुपत्न्युक्तं गुर्वपत्योक्तमेव च

Transliteration

yosi sosi namastubhyamupadeśena yuṃkṣva mām | gurūktaṃ gurupatnyuktaṃ gurvapatyoktameva ca

Translation

Walau siapa pun tuan—demikianlah; aku menunduk sembah kepada tuan. Hubungkanlah aku dengan upadeśa, ajarilah aku. Apa yang diucapkan oleh guru, oleh isteri guru, dan oleh anak guru—semuanya itulah yang patut diterima sebagai pegangan yang berwibawa.

FAQs

A sincere seeker submits to guidance; reverence for the guru’s instruction is upheld as a pillar of dharma.

Indirectly Kāśī’s dharmic milieu is the chapter’s focus; this verse emphasizes the means—right instruction—by which Kāśī’s worship bears fruit.

Seeking upadeśa (formal spiritual instruction) from a qualified authority is implied; no specific vrata or snāna is stated here.
