त्र्यक्षं प्रत्यक्षमावीक्ष्य वरदानोन्मुखं पुरः । देवीं च वामभागस्थां प्रणनाम कृतांजलिः
tryakṣaṃ pratyakṣamāvīkṣya varadānonmukhaṃ puraḥ | devīṃ ca vāmabhāgasthāṃ praṇanāma kṛtāṃjaliḥ
Nang makita niya ang Tatlong-Matang Panginoon na hayag sa harap, handang magbigay ng biyaya, at ang Diyosa na nakaupo sa Kanyang kaliwang panig, siya’y yumukod na magkadikit ang mga palad.
Skanda (deduced, Kāśīkhaṇḍa narrative to Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Scene: The devotee beholds Tryambaka directly, poised to grant a boon; Devī sits at his left. She bows with folded hands in reverence.
When grace manifests, the right response is humility and reverence—bowing to Śiva together with Śakti.
Kāśī’s sanctified space (linked in context with Uttarārka) is shown as a place of direct divine darśana.
Praṇāma with kṛtāñjali (folded hands) is modeled as the devotee’s act of worship upon darśana.
