Skanda Purana — Kashi Khanda, Shloka 72
न नमामि न च स्तौमि न पश्यामीह चक्षुषा । न स्पृशामि न वायामि गायामि न न हरिं विना
na namāmi na ca staumi na paśyāmīha cakṣuṣā | na spṛśāmi na vāyāmi gāyāmi na na hariṃ vinā
Não me prostro nem louvo; nem sequer olho aqui com meus olhos. Não toco, não caminho, não canto—sem Hari.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Sages/pilgrims
Scene: A pilgrim sits still on a Kāśī ghat, eyes lowered, senses withdrawn; around him bustle fades; only a luminous Hari-form is reflected in his inner vision, while his lips softly form the Name.
