durvāsāścātihṛṣṭobhū्ddṛṣṭvā pāśupatottamān | bhūtibhūṣitasarvāṃgāñjaṭājaṭitamaulikān
Durvāsā vô cùng hoan hỷ khi thấy những bậc Pāśupata tối thượng—toàn thân được trang nghiêm bằng vibhūti (tro thánh), và trên đầu đội như vương miện những búi tóc jata bện kết.
Skanda
Tirtha: Ānandakānana (Kāśī)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A group of foremost Pāśupata ascetics in Kāśī: bodies smeared with sacred ash, matted locks piled like crowns; Durvāsā beholds them with delight and recognition of Śiva’s path.
Association with devoted Śaivas is celebrated; visible disciplines (bhasma, jaṭā) signify inner dedication to Pāśupati.
The Kāśī sphere—especially Ānandakānana—where exemplary Pāśupata devotees are encountered.
Implied Śaiva observance: wearing sacred ash (bhasma-dhāraṇa) and adopting ascetic disciplines associated with Pāśupata devotion.
