Skanda
Tirtha: Kambalāśvatareśa (associated tīrtha unnamed here)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim approaches a westward Śiva shrine after bathing; the liṅga is garlanded, with bilva leaves and a small oil lamp; the nearby tīrtha glints behind, framed by Kāśī’s lanes and ghāṭ steps.
Sacred geography and devotion unite: bathing at a tīrtha becomes complete through liṅga-worship.
Kambalāśvatareśa (Śiva) and the associated Kambalāśvatara tīrtha area in Kāśī.
Perform snāna at the tīrtha and worship the liṅga of Kambalāśvatareśa.
