अवश्यंभाविनो भावा भविष्यंति पदेपदे । सलक्ष्मीनिलयां काशीं ते त्यजंति कुतो धियः
avaśyaṃbhāvino bhāvā bhaviṣyaṃti padepade | salakṣmīnilayāṃ kāśīṃ te tyajaṃti kuto dhiyaḥ
Những việc tất yếu xảy ra ở mỗi bước chân; vậy bậc trí làm sao có thể bỏ Kāśī, nơi cư ngụ cát tường của Thánh Mẫu Lakṣmī?
Skanda (deduced; Kāśīkhaṇḍa context typically Skanda to Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: null
Scene: A wise pilgrim walks through Kāśī’s lanes as small ‘inevitable events’ (rain, crowds, obstacles) arise; above, Lakṣmī’s auspicious presence is symbolized by lotus-gold light resting over the city, while Śiva’s sanctity anchors the scene.
Since obstacles are unavoidable everywhere, one should hold to the highest refuge—Kāśī—rather than flee from life’s uncertainties.
Kāśī, praised as the auspicious seat of Lakṣmī and thus both spiritually and materially blessed.
None explicitly; it promotes steadfast residence/devotion rather than a particular vrata or donation.
