anītayaśca tadgrāmānārājapuruṣāḥ kvacit | gṛhegṛhetra dhanadā nāka eko'lakāpatiḥ
在那些村落里没有不义之事，亦不见暴虐的王吏；此处家家户户皆有财富，而在天界唯有一位阿罗迦之主俱毗罗（Kubera）为施财者。
Skanda (deduced; Kāśīkhaṇḍa context typically Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī-kṣetra (and its grāmas)
Type: kshetra
Listener: null
Scene: Peaceful Kāśī villages with open doors, content households, no soldiers harassing people; wealth symbolized by full granaries and lamps. In contrast, a small celestial inset shows Kubera alone as Alakā’s lord, while on earth wealth is distributed widely.
