जीवन्मुक्तैवासं हि क्षेत्रतत्त्वश्रुतेरहम् । स्कंददक्षेश्वरादीनि लिंगानीह चतुर्दश । यान्युक्तानि समाचक्ष्व तत्प्रभावमशेषतः
jīvanmuktaivāsaṃ hi kṣetratattvaśruteraham | skaṃdadakṣeśvarādīni liṃgānīha caturdaśa | yānyuktāni samācakṣva tatprabhāvamaśeṣataḥ
Услышав истину об этом священном кшетре, я стал словно освобождённым ещё при жизни. Теперь же о четырнадцати Лингах здесь — начиная со Сканды и Дакшешвары, — которые были упомянуты: поведай мне их силу полностью, без остатка.
Unspecified in snippet (a listener/devotee addressing the narrator; within Kāśī Khaṇḍa typically a question posed to Skanda)
Tirtha: Fourteen Liṅgas of Kāśī (beginning with Skanda-liṅga and Dakṣeśvara-liṅga)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A questioning sage, uplifted and radiant as if liberated, asks for the complete power of fourteen Kāśī liṅgas—beginning with Skanda and Dakṣeśvara—while a divine narrator prepares to explain.
Understanding Kāśī’s kṣetra-tattva and the Liṅgas established there leads toward jīvanmukti; the text urges complete knowledge of their māhātmya.
Kāśī (Vārāṇasī) as a kṣetra, specifically its network of revered Śiva-Liṅgas including Dakṣeśvara.
The implied practice is attentive hearing (śravaṇa) and learning the Liṅga-māhātmya as part of tīrtha-oriented devotion.
