Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 168
विश्वकर्मा च प्रासादलिंगं याम्येति नाम च । विभीषणश्च पांसूत्थं सुहृत्तमेति नाम च । वंशांकुरोत्थं सगरो नाम संगतमेव च
viśvakarmā ca prāsādaliṃgaṃ yāmyeti nāma ca | vibhīṣaṇaśca pāṃsūtthaṃ suhṛttameti nāma ca | vaṃśāṃkurotthaṃ sagaro nāma saṃgatameva ca
صنعَ فيشفاكَرما لِنْغًا كالقصر وسمّاه «ياميا». وصنعَ فيبيṣaṇa لِنْغًا مولودًا من الغبار وسمّاه «سُهṛتّما» أي خيرَ الأصدقاء. وصنعَ سَغَرا لِنْغًا ناشئًا من برعم الخيزران، وكان اسمه «سَنْغَتا» أي المتّحدُ إحكامًا.
