अच्छिन्ना तर्जनीं व्याप्य तथा रेखास्य दृश्यते । कनिष्ठा पृष्ठनिर्याता दीर्घायुष्यं यथार्पयेत्
acchinnā tarjanīṃ vyāpya tathā rekhāsya dṛśyate | kaniṣṭhā pṛṣṭhaniryātā dīrghāyuṣyaṃ yathārpayet
اگر شہادت کی انگلی پر پھیلی ہوئی ایک بے ٹوٹی لکیر دکھائی دے، اور چھوٹی انگلی کی لکیر پشت کی سمت نکلتی ہو، تو کہا جاتا ہے کہ یہ اسے دراز عمر عطا کرتی ہے۔
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī (Avimukta)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Close-up of a hand in lamplight: an unbroken line crossing the index finger and a line from the little finger extending toward the back; a sage points with a kusha tip while Gaṅgā’s shimmer appears blurred behind.
Longevity is presented as a karmic fruit, recognized through auspicious signs rather than claimed through mere desire.
The verse belongs to the Kāśī-khaṇḍa context, but it does not name a particular tīrtha.
None; it is a descriptive omen-like teaching about bodily marks.
