एतन्नवानां नवकं ज्ञात्वा प्रियमवाप्नुयात् । अन्यच्च नवकं वच्मि सर्वेषां स्वर्गमार्गदम्
etannavānāṃ navakaṃ jñātvā priyamavāpnuyāt | anyacca navakaṃ vacmi sarveṣāṃ svargamārgadam
‘ନବ’ ସମ୍ବନ୍ଧୀୟ ଏହି ନବବିଧ ସମୁହକୁ ଜାଣିଲେ ପ୍ରିୟ ଓ ହିତକର ଫଳ ମିଳେ। ଏବେ ମୁଁ ଆଉ ଏକ ନବକ କହୁଛି, ଯାହା ସମସ୍ତଙ୍କୁ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗମାର୍ଗ ଦେଇଥାଏ।
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Audience of householders/pilgrims
Scene: A teacher announces a structured teaching: one ninefold set completed, another ninefold set to be revealed; disciples attentive with palm-leaf notes; Kāśī ghats in the background.
Dharma is taught in structured sets: mastering ethical restraints prepares one for higher virtues leading to svarga.
Kāśī remains the sacred narrative environment; the verse introduces the next teaching rather than praising a site.
No specific ritual act is prescribed; it transitions from one ninefold teaching to another.
