यानि कानि पवित्राणि श्रुत्युक्तानि सदाशिव । तेभ्योऽधिकतरं चास्तु क्षेत्रमेतत्त्रिलोचन
yāni kāni pavitrāṇi śrutyuktāni sadāśiva | tebhyo'dhikataraṃ cāstu kṣetrametattrilocana
Ôi Sadāśiva! Mọi điều thanh tịnh được Veda tuyên thuyết—hỡi Trilocana, Đấng ba mắt—nguyện thánh địa này còn thanh tịnh hóa hơn tất thảy những điều ấy.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa commonly Skanda speaking to Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A cosmic scale of purifiers—Vedic fires, sacred rivers, mantras—yet Kāśī shines above them as a radiant kṣetra under the gaze of Trilocana.
Sacred geography can surpass even general Vedic purifications—Kāśī is upheld as uniquely supreme.
The ‘kṣetra’ is Kāśī (Vārāṇasī), addressed in a Śaiva devotional frame.
No specific rite; the focus is on the incomparable sanctity of the Kāśī-kṣetra.
