गोपीचंदननिर्यास लसदंगविलेपनः । तपसा कृशसर्वांगो मूर्तो ज्वलनवज्ज्वलन्
gopīcaṃdananiryāsa lasadaṃgavilepanaḥ | tapasā kṛśasarvāṃgo mūrto jvalanavajjvalan
گوپی چندن کے لیپ سے اس کے اعضا دمک رہے تھے؛ تپسیا سے دبلا ہوا سارا بدن گویا مجسم آگ کی طرح بھڑک رہا تھا۔
Skanda (deduced, Kāśīkhaṇḍa narrative frame)
Tirtha: Dvārakā (contextual)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Close view of Nārada: limbs gleaming with gopīcandana paste; body lean from austerity; an aura like flame surrounds him, suggesting tapas-tejas.
Austerity and devotion transform the practitioner—inner tapas becomes visible as spiritual radiance and purity.
No single tīrtha is praised in this verse; it characterizes Nārada as he moves through sacred geography within the Purāṇic narrative.
Implicitly, it references devotional anointing with gopī-candana, a Vaiṣṇava practice, but gives no formal injunction.
