Skanda Dialogue

Listener: Śaunaka and other ṛṣis at Naimiṣāraṇya (standard Sūta frame; not explicit in this verse)

FAQs

Even supreme worldly boons come from divine grace, yet the context prepares for the devotee’s higher choice—devotion over enjoyment.

No specific tīrtha is named in this verse; it is a general Śaiva dialogue within the Brahmottarakhaṇḍa narrative.

None explicitly; the verse concerns Śiva’s granting of boons.
