“亲爱的孩子,你是我唯一的儿子;我唯靠你而活。你是支撑我身躯的杖,我的双眼紧系在你的面容上。”
Unspecified in excerpt (likely a mother addressing her child within the Kāśīkhaṇḍa narrative frame)
Tirtha: Avimukta-Kāśī (contextual)
Type: kshetra
Listener: son/child
Scene: An aged parent speaks to a young son on a Kāśī lane/ghāṭa stair, leaning gently as on a staff; the parent’s eyes remain fixed on the child’s face, conveying reliance and affection.
It highlights dependence, care, and duty within family life—an ethical foundation (dharma) that supports higher spiritual pursuit.
The verse occurs in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa context (Kāśī), but it does not name a particular tīrtha.
None is mentioned; it is a devotional-emotional statement within the narrative.
