Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 11
दृष्ट्वा गच्छंति ते देवि स्वर्गं धर्मपरायणाः । स्नानं जाप्यं बलिं होमं पूजां स्तोत्रं च नर्तनम् । तस्मिन्स्थाने तु यः कुर्यात्तत्सर्वं चाक्षयं भवेत्
dṛṣṭvā gacchaṃti te devi svargaṃ dharmaparāyaṇāḥ | snānaṃ jāpyaṃ baliṃ homaṃ pūjāṃ stotraṃ ca nartanam | tasminsthāne tu yaḥ kuryāttatsarvaṃ cākṣayaṃ bhavet
يا إلهة، من عاين (تلك الحضرة المقدّسة) وهو مُقيمٌ على الدَّرما مضى إلى السماء. فالاغتسال، والجَپا، وقربانُ البَلي، والهُوما، والعبادة، والترانيم، وحتى الرقصُ المقدّس—كلُّ ما يُفعل في ذلك الموضع يصير ثوابُه غيرَ فانٍ.
