कल्पवृक्षादि वृक्षांश्च धातून्कांचनमुख्यतः । दिव्यस्त्रीरुर्वशीमुख्या गरुडादीन्पतत्त्रिणः
kalpavṛkṣādi vṛkṣāṃśca dhātūnkāṃcanamukhyataḥ | divyastrīrurvaśīmukhyā garuḍādīnpatattriṇaḥ
Dapat alalahanin ang mga punong nagsisimula sa Kalpavṛkṣa, ang mga metal na pinangungunahan ng ginto, ang mga makalangit na babae na pinangungunahan ni Urvaśī, at ang mga dakilang ibon na pinangungunahan ni Garuḍa.
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and sages at Naimiṣāraṇya (typical Purāṇic frame)
Scene: A contemplative pilgrim in Kāśī visualizes a cosmic catalogue: the wish-fulfilling Kalpavṛkṣa, radiant gold, Urvaśī among apsarases, and Garuḍa soaring above—symbols of divine plenitude.
Remembering auspicious archetypes (wish-fulfillment, purity, beauty, protection) orients the mind toward dharma and sacred order.
No single tīrtha is named; the verse contributes to a universal remembrance list taught in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa.
Smaraṇa of auspicious entities—Kalpavṛkṣa, gold, Urvaśī, and Garuḍa—typically as part of morning recollection.
