उन्नतो मांसलोंगुष्ठो वर्तुलोतुलभोगदः । वक्रो ह्रस्वश्च चिपिटः सुखसौभाग्यभंजकः
unnato māṃsaloṃguṣṭho vartulotulabhogadaḥ | vakro hrasvaśca cipiṭaḥ sukhasaubhāgyabhaṃjakaḥ
اونچا اور گوشت دار بڑا انگوٹھا جو گولائی لیے ہو، بے مثال لذتوں کا عطا کرنے والا کہا گیا ہے۔ لیکن اگر وہ ٹیڑھا، چھوٹا یا چپٹا ہو تو اسے خوشی اور سعادت کو توڑ دینے والا بتایا گیا ہے۔
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: Close depiction of feet: a rounded, raised, fleshy big toe shown as auspicious; beside it, variants—crooked, short, flattened—shown as cautionary. A teacher gestures with a stylus, with Kāśī temple spires in the distance.
Prosperity and loss are portrayed as karmically patterned; one should cultivate dharma so that fortune supports spiritual progress rather than mere indulgence.
Kāśī is the overarching sacred geography of the Kāśīkhaṇḍa context, though this verse itself is not a tīrtha-description.
None; the verse provides omens (lakṣaṇa) rather than instructions for vrata, dāna, or snāna.
