शीतोष्णभानू स्वर्भानु ग्रस्तावपि नभोंगणे । गतिं न त्यजतोद्यापि प्रक्रांतव्य कृतोद्यमौ
śītoṣṇabhānū svarbhānu grastāvapi nabhoṃgaṇe | gatiṃ na tyajatodyāpi prakrāṃtavya kṛtodyamau
ନଭୋମଣ୍ଡଳରେ ଶୀତଳ ଚନ୍ଦ୍ର ଓ ଉଷ୍ଣ ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟ ସ୍ୱର୍ଭାନୁ ଦ୍ୱାରା ଗ୍ରସ୍ତ ହେଲେ ମଧ୍ୟ ନିଜ ଗତି ତ୍ୟାଗ କରନ୍ତି ନାହିଁ। ସେପରି ଯେ ଉଦ୍ୟମ ଆରମ୍ଭ କରିଛି, ସେ ଆରମ୍ଭିତ ପଥରେ ଅବିଚଳ ଅଗ୍ରସର ହେଉ।
Skanda (deduced, Kāśīkhaṇḍa dialogue-context)
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Sages / pilgrimage audience
Scene: Sky over Kāśī during an eclipse: sun and moon partially obscured by Svarbhānu, yet their paths implied; below, a pilgrim continues walking the ghats with unwavering intent.
Obstacles are temporary; like eclipsed luminaries that keep moving, a seeker should not abandon a righteous course.
Kāśī frames the discourse, but this verse uses a cosmic example rather than naming a particular tirtha.
No ritual instruction; it is a moral-spiritual exhortation to steadfastness.
