अनाथनाथाऽभीष्टार्थसिद्धिदाऽनंगवर्धिनी । अणिमादिगुणाऽधाराग्रगण्याऽलीकहारिणी
anāthanāthā'bhīṣṭārthasiddhidā'naṃgavardhinī | aṇimādiguṇā'dhārāgragaṇyā'līkahāriṇī
నీవు అనాథులకు నాథవు, ఇష్టార్థసిద్ధిని ప్రసాదించువు, పవిత్ర ప్రేమను (అనంగం) వర్ధింపజేయువు. అణిమాది యోగగుణాలకు ఆధారము, పూజ్యులలో అగ్రగణ్యము, అసత్యహారిణివి.
Skanda (contextual attribution within Kāśīkhaṇḍa dialogue)
Tirtha: Gaṅgā (Kāśī) as Siddhi-dāyinī
Type: ghat
Scene: Gaṅgā as guardian-mother stands at the riverbank, granting boons; around her appear symbolic aṇimā etc. as subtle lights; a veil of falsehood dissolves as her waters flow.
The tīrtha is not merely physical: Gaṅgā supports inner transformation—truthfulness, attainment of aims, and yogic refinement.
Gaṅgā in Kāśī, revered as a living support for spiritual attainments within the sacred city’s pilgrimage framework.
None stated directly; the verse implies that contact with Gaṅgā (snāna, ācamana, stuti) is connected with siddhi and purification.
