Ele é louvado por ter três traços curtos: o pescoço, as pernas e o órgão gerador. E por três qualidades profundas—a voz, a vitalidade e o umbigo—este infante auspicioso é «triplamente profundo».
Skanda (deduced for Kāśīkhaṇḍa context) narrating to Agastya
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Scene: The sage notes three short features (neck, shanks, generative organ) and three deep qualities (voice, vitality, navel) in an auspicious infant; parents listen with reverence near a ghat-side setting.
Puranic dharma links inner strength (voice, vitality) with auspicious destiny, implying that power should mature into righteous conduct.
Kāśī remains the macro-context of the Kāśīkhaṇḍa, but this verse focuses on personal auspicious signs.
None; it is descriptive—classifying bodily features as auspicious according to lakṣaṇa tradition.
