Tirtha: Kāśī-kṣetra (general context)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Sūrya as the Veda-known deity: rays shaped like Vedic meters, sages chanting on a Kāśī ghat; the sun’s chariot implied by radiant geometry; fear dissolving as darkness retreats.
Sūrya is Veda-grounded and nourishing; devotion to him dispels fear and strengthens life-force.
Kāśī remains the implied sacred setting of the Kāśīkhaṇḍa narration.
Chanting Sūrya’s names, especially as Veda-aligned praise (stuti).
