सच्चिदानंदनिलयं परब्रह्मरसायनम् । सुखसंतानजनकं मोक्षसाधनसिद्धिदम्
saccidānaṃdanilayaṃ parabrahmarasāyanam | sukhasaṃtānajanakaṃ mokṣasādhanasiddhidam
ਇਹ ਸੱਚਿਦਾਨੰਦ ਦਾ ਨਿਵਾਸ ਹੈ, ਪਰਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਦਾ ਅਮ੍ਰਿਤ-ਰਸ; ਇਹ ਸੁਖ ਦੀ ਅਟੁੱਟ ਧਾਰਾ ਉਪਜਾਉਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਮੋਖਸ਼ ਦੇ ਸਾਧਨਾਂ ਦੀ ਸਿੱਧੀ ਬਖ਼ਸ਼ਦਾ ਹੈ।
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta-kṣetra)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A serene, radiant Kāśī-kṣetra visualized as the abode of Sat–Cit–Ānanda: a luminous cityscape with subtle golden-white aura, the Gaṅgā flowing calmly, and an unseen presence of Brahman permeating the air.
The kṣetra is portrayed not merely as a place but as a manifestation of ultimate reality, enabling both worldly uplift (sukha) and the perfection of mokṣa-oriented practice.
Kāśī (Vārāṇasī), described in Vedāntic language as the abode of Sat-Cit-Ānanda.
No single rite is named; the verse broadly affirms the successful fruition of mokṣa-sādhanas in this kṣetra.
