यदि कोपि कृतज्ञो मां हत्वेमं दुष्टदानवम् । मद्दत्तेन त्रिशूलेन नयेद्भद्रं भवेन्नरः
yadi kopi kṛtajño māṃ hatvemaṃ duṣṭadānavam | maddattena triśūlena nayedbhadraṃ bhavennaraḥ
若有知恩之人,为我诛杀此恶行的达那婆,并以我所赐之三叉戟行之,则此人必得安泰与吉祥之福。
Skanda (deduced)
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and ṛṣis (frame implied)
Scene: A supplicant figure offers a trident to a potential hero, urging him to slay the wicked dānava; the trident glows as a destined instrument of justice.
Gratitude and righteous protection of others bring auspicious merit; dharma rewards courageous service.
Not directly; the merit-language supports the Kāśī-khaṇḍa’s broader message of dharma and sacred protection.
No ritual; it states a dharmic act (slaying a wicked oppressor with the proper means) and its fruit (bhadra).
