Kurukshetra, Pṛthūdaka Tīrtha, and the Marriage of Saṃvaraṇa with Tapatī
या सा हिमवतः पुत्री भवेनोढा तपोधना उमा नाम्ना च तस्याः सा कोशाञ्जाता तुकौशिकी
yā sā himavataḥ putrī bhavenoḍhā tapodhanā umā nāmnā ca tasyāḥ sā kośāñjātā tukauśikī
她乃喜马伐特(Himavat)之女,具足苦行之宝,嫁与婆伐(Bhava,即湿婆 Śiva),名为乌玛(Umā);而她又从自身的“鞘/外覆”(kośa)中出生,化现为考希姬(Kauśikī)。

Tapas (spiritual discipline) is portrayed as true wealth (tapodhana), and the divine feminine is shown as capable of self-transformation into the precise form needed for protection and restoration of dharma.
Vamśānucarita/Carita: it identifies divine personages (Himavat’s daughter; Śiva’s consort) and narrates a specific prādurbhāva (manifestation) that leads into the demon-slaying episode.
‘Kośa’ can be read as an outer covering or limiting condition; Kauśikī’s emergence signifies the revelation of an unbound, luminous śakti from within—an inner power becoming overt for cosmic action.
