மீண்டும் மீண்டும் அந்தக் க்ஷேத்திரத்தை கண்களுக்கு விருந்தினனாக்கி (மறுமறுக் கண்டு), அது அற்புதமும் தூய்மையும் ஆனாலும் அவன் திருப்தியை அடையவில்லை।
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa discourse)
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta-kṣetra)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A devotee repeatedly turns his gaze toward the same sacred panorama—ghats, temples, Gaṅgā—each time seeing new wonders; the kṣetra is personified as a guest arriving at the eyes, while the devotee remains unsated in holy longing.
Holy places like Kāśī inspire inexhaustible devotional longing; repeated darśana deepens purity rather than producing mere sensory satiation.
The Kāśī-kṣetra as a whole (the sacred field/city), praised as both wondrous and purifying.
No fixed ritual; the act emphasized is repeated darśana—returning again and again to behold the kṣetra.
