Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 39
लक्ष्म्याः सर्वत्र गामिन्या दोषो नैव प्रजायते । यथा सर्वमयो विष्णुर्न दोषैरनुभूयते
lakṣmyāḥ sarvatra gāminyā doṣo naiva prajāyate | yathā sarvamayo viṣṇurna doṣairanubhūyate
إنَّ لاكشمي، السارية في كلِّ مكان، لا ينشأ فيها عيبٌ قطّ؛ كما أنَّ فيشنو، الحاضر في جميع الصور، لا تلطّخه العيوب ولا تحدّه.
Sūta (deduced: Nāgara Khaṇḍa māhātmya narration style)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Allegorical tableau: Lakṣmī moving through all realms distributing auspiciousness, while Viṣṇu stands as the all-pervading ground, untouched by impurities—like lotus unstained by water.
