अमृतं हि भवंत्येव मृता यत्र शरीरिणः । अनुग्रहं समासाद्य परं विश्वेश्वरस्य ह
amṛtaṃ hi bhavaṃtyeva mṛtā yatra śarīriṇaḥ | anugrahaṃ samāsādya paraṃ viśveśvarasya ha
Quả thật, tại nơi ấy, ngay cả những hữu tình mang thân xác đã chết cũng trở nên bất tử, nhờ được ân sủng tối thượng của Đức Viśveśvara.

Tirtha: Avimukta/Kāśī under Viśveśvara
Type: kshetra
Scene: A funerary ghat scene subtly transformed: a departing soul rises toward a radiant Viśveśvara presence; the atmosphere is not grim but luminous—death turning into amṛta through grace.
In Kāśī, the Lord’s grace is portrayed as stronger than death—transforming mortality into the promise of liberation/immortality.
Avimukta-Kāśī under the lordship of Viśveśvara, famed for bestowing mokṣa even at the time of death.
No explicit rite; the verse conveys the doctrine of salvific grace associated with passing away in Kāśī.
