The Greatness of Kāśī (Avimukta): Pilgrimage Calendar, Yātrā-Dharma, and the Network of Śiva-Liṅgas
अन्या चापि परा प्रोक्ता संवर्ता ललिता शुभा । द्रष्टव्या चैव सा भक्त्या सर्वकामफलप्रदा ॥ १५ ॥
anyā cāpi parā proktā saṃvartā lalitā śubhā | draṣṭavyā caiva sā bhaktyā sarvakāmaphalapradā || 15 ||
ایک اور اعلیٰ صورت بھی بیان کی گئی ہے—مبارک سنورتا للیتا؛ اس کا بھی بھکتی سے درشن کرنا چاہیے، کیونکہ وہ تمام خواہشوں کا پھل عطا کرتی ہے۔
Narada (teaching in a Tirtha-Mahatmya sequence; exact interlocutor not specified in the provided excerpt)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
It elevates devotional darśana as a direct spiritual practice: beholding the auspicious divine form (Saṃvartā/Lalitā) with bhakti is presented as a complete means that yields both worldly and spiritual fulfillments.
Bhakti is emphasized as the qualifying attitude for darśana—mere sight is not the point; reverent, devoted contemplation is what activates the promised fruit (phala), making devotion the core method.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa, Jyotiṣa, or Kalpa) is taught in this verse; it functions more as a phala-śruti style instruction within a Tīrtha/Māhātmya framework, stressing devotional observance.
