شَنکھ تیرتھ کے قریب ہی بے مثال چَکر تیرتھ ہے۔ اس مقدّس گھاٹ کے جل میں غوطہ لگانے سے جیو پھر سنسار کے گھومتے چکر میں نہیں گرتا۔
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Cakra-tīrtha
Type: ghat
Scene: A pilgrim approaches a calm sacred ford marked by a radiant discus emblem; nearby sign of Śaṅkha-tīrtha; the water reflects a wheel-like halo suggesting the ‘samsāra-cakra’ being stilled.
Kāśī’s tīrthas are portrayed as direct aids to liberation; sincere immersion symbolizes release from the cyclic bondage of saṃsāra.
Cakra-tīrtha, located near (on the nearer side of) Śaṅkha-tīrtha in the sacred landscape of Kāśī.
Majjana/snānā—immersive bathing in the waters of the tīrtha.
