षष्टिवर्षसहस्राणि काशीवासेषु यत्फलम् । तत्फलं निमिषार्द्धेन कलौ दाशरथीं पुरीम्
ṣaṣṭivarṣasahasrāṇi kāśīvāseṣu yatphalam | tatphalaṃ nimiṣārddhena kalau dāśarathīṃ purīm
Apa jua pahala yang diperoleh dengan tinggal di Kāśī selama enam puluh ribu tahun—pahala itu juga diraih pada zaman Kali hanya dalam setengah detik, dengan berlindung di Ayodhyā, kota Daśaratha.
Varāha (deduced; Vaiṣṇavakhaṇḍa context)
Tirtha: Ayodhyā (Daśaratha-purī)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A cosmic scale of merit: on one side, Kāśī with countless years symbolized by a long scroll; on the other, Ayodhyā glowing, granting the same fruit in a blink; above, Kali-yuga shadow is pierced by Ayodhyā’s light.
Ayodhyā’s sanctity is so exalted in Kali Yuga that even brief contact with it yields immense merit.
Ayodhyā (Daśaratha’s city), compared directly with Kāśī (Vārāṇasī).
No specific rite is mandated here; the emphasis is on resorting to/being present in Ayodhyā even briefly.
