ఆమె ధర్మముచేత లభ్యురాలు; ఆమె జలమే ధర్మము, ధర్మాన్ని ప్రసవించినా సదా ధర్మిణి. ఆమె స్వరూపం ధ్యానముచేత గమ్యము; ఆమె ధరణి, ధాత్రి చేత పూజిత.
Skanda (deduced for Kāśī-khaṇḍa context, commonly Skanda speaking to Agastya)
Tirtha: Gaṅgā in Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A calm dawn scene: Gaṅgā as a serene goddess whose waters are inscribed with subtle ‘dharma’ motifs; meditators sit in stillness; Earth imagery (mountain-like steadiness, supportive hands) suggests dharaṇī; a divine figure (Dhātṛ/Brahmā as ‘sustainer’) offers reverence.
Dharma and meditation are the two gateways: right living and inner contemplation reveal the Goddess’s true nature.
It aligns with Kāśī-khaṇḍa’s sanctification of Kāśī’s dharmic waters and meditative power, though no single tirtha is named.
Meditation (dhyāna) is indicated as the means to realize her form; no detailed rite is specified.
