मौलिजैरभ्रसंघर्षं कुर्वन्दीर्घकृशोदरः । निमग्नपिंगनयनः कश्चिद्भीषयति स्म तम्
maulijairabhrasaṃgharṣaṃ kurvandīrghakṛśodaraḥ | nimagnapiṃganayanaḥ kaścidbhīṣayati sma tam
Ang isa pa—matangkad at may mahabang payat na tiyan—ay pinakikiskis ng kaniyang mga palamuting pang-ulo ang mga ulap; nakalubog ang mapulang-dilaw na mga mata, patuloy niyang tinatakot siya.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Avimukta-Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣi-assembly
Scene: A towering, gaunt-bellied figure whose crown-ornaments scrape the clouds; sunken tawny eyes glare downward as he repeatedly tries to frighten the child/hero below.
Even cosmic-scale intimidation is portrayed as merely a test; spiritual discipline is to remain unshaken.
Kāśī is the overarching sacred setting in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa; this verse does not name a particular tīrtha.
None.
