Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 10
चन्द्रसूर्यौ च नयने दिशः श्रोत्रे नासिकाश्विनौ । आत्मानं ब्रह्मरंध्रस्थमाहुस्त्वां वेदवादिनः
candrasūryau ca nayane diśaḥ śrotre nāsikāśvinau | ātmānaṃ brahmaraṃdhrasthamāhustvāṃ vedavādinaḥ
چاند اور سورج تیرے دو نین ہیں؛ سمتیں تیرے کان ہیں؛ اور اشوِنین تیرے نتھنے ہیں۔ وید کے جاننے والے کہتے ہیں کہ تو برہمرَندھر میں قائم آتما ہے۔
Devas (hymning Virāṭ/Puruṣa—cosmic form, addressed to Virañci/Brahmā’s principle in context)
Scene: Virāṭ face: one eye as Sun, the other as Moon; ears opening to the ten directions; nostrils marked by the twin Aśvins; a luminous aperture at the crown signifying brahma-randhra with the Self enthroned as pure light.
FAQs

No single tīrtha is named in this verse; it is a cosmic-theological praise (Virāṭ mapping) rather than a place-māhātmya.
None explicitly; the verse supports contemplative upāsanā—meditating on the Divine as the cosmic body and inner Self.
