बस्तिः प्रशस्ता विपुला मृद्वीस्तोकसमुन्नता । रोमशा च शिराला च रेखांका नैव शोभना
bastiḥ praśastā vipulā mṛdvīstokasamunnatā | romaśā ca śirālā ca rekhāṃkā naiva śobhanā
下腹与腰际若宽阔、柔软而仅微微隆起,则为可称;若毛发过盛、青筋显露,或有明显纹线与条痕,则被说为不美、不吉。
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: A calm instructional tableau: a sage explains auspicious bodily proportions; disciples listen with attentive, neutral expressions; Kāśī’s riverside steps and lamps suggest a sacred pedagogic atmosphere.
Auspiciousness is portrayed as harmony and moderation; extremes and harshness are treated as signs calling for greater care in dharmic living.
The setting is Kāśī in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa, though this particular verse does not name a separate tīrtha.
None; the verse is a lakṣaṇa (descriptive) statement.
