Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 21
लिंगमेतद्धि सर्वासां पूजानां फलमाप्नुयात् । अद्यप्रभृति ये वृक्षा दैविकाः पार्थिवाश्च ये । तेषां सान्निध्यमत्रास्तु प्रसादात्तव शंकर
liṃgametaddhi sarvāsāṃ pūjānāṃ phalamāpnuyāt | adyaprabhṛti ye vṛkṣā daivikāḥ pārthivāśca ye | teṣāṃ sānnidhyamatrāstu prasādāttava śaṃkara
এই লিঙ্গই যেন সকল প্রকার পূজার ফল প্রদান করে। আর আজ থেকে দেবীয় ও পার্থিব—যে সকল বৃক্ষ আছে, তাদের সকলের সান্নিধ্য এখানে আপনার প্রসাদে হোক, হে শংকর।
