तच्च ज्ञानं भवेत्पुंसां सम्यक्काशीनिषेवणात् । काशीनिषेवणेन स्याद्विश्वेशकरुणोदयः
tacca jñānaṃ bhavetpuṃsāṃ samyakkāśīniṣevaṇāt | kāśīniṣevaṇena syādviśveśakaruṇodayaḥ
ସେହି ସତ୍ୟ ଜ୍ଞାନ ମନୁଷ୍ୟଙ୍କୁ କାଶୀର ସମ୍ୟକ୍ ସେବନ—ଭକ୍ତିସହ ବାସ—ଦ୍ୱାରା ଉଦ୍ଭବ ହୁଏ। କାଶୀସେବାରେ ବିଶ୍ୱେଶ୍ୱରଙ୍କ କରୁଣାର ଉଦୟ ହୁଏ।
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: Pilgrims serve in Kāśī—offering water and bilva to Viśveśvara—while a soft radiance of compassion descends, symbolizing the dawn of knowledge in the devotee’s heart.
Kāśī is presented as a living field of awakening: sincere engagement with the dharma of Kāśī draws forth knowledge and Śiva’s grace.
Kāśī (Vārāṇasī), especially as the realm of Viśveśa (Śiva), is explicitly glorified.
Not a single rite, but the core discipline of kāśī-niṣevaṇa—proper service, devotion, and lived practice in Kāśī.
