प्रसह्य प्रमिमीतेश भक्तिर्मांस्तुतिकर्मणि । करोमि किं जगन्नाथ न वश्यानींद्रियाणि मे
prasahya pramimīteśa bhaktirmāṃstutikarmaṇi | karomi kiṃ jagannātha na vaśyānīṃdriyāṇi me
Lạy Đấng Jagannātha, lòng bhakti thúc ép con bước vào việc tán tụng; nhưng con biết làm sao, hỡi Chúa tể thế gian? Các căn của con chẳng chịu phục tùng con.
Pūtātmā
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: A devotee on a Kāśī ghāṭa, hands folded, overwhelmed by devotion, confessing lack of control over the senses while facing a shrine of Viśveśvara; lamps and river-light frame the humility.
Devotion can overflow beyond personal capacity; spiritual life includes acknowledging inner limitations and seeking divine support.
Kāśī is the overarching sacred context in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa, portraying devotion to Śiva as naturally arising there.
No explicit rite is prescribed; the verse reflects the inner discipline of sense-control alongside devotion.
