Narrator (within Skanda-to-Agastya frame, attributed to Skanda)
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A litany-like roll call of Śiva’s gaṇas—each with distinct iconographic hints (matted hair, tawny eyes, goat-emblem, radiant aura)—standing as a protective ring around Kāśī’s sacred precincts.
Remembering and honoring Śiva’s retinue reinforces the sense of Kāśī as a divinely administered realm, protected by countless forms of sacred power.
Kāśī/Vārāṇasī in context, toward which these Gaṇas are mobilized.
None; the focus is the enumerative narration of Śiva’s Gaṇas.
