Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 11

Devanagari script

पूजनार्थाय विधये धनदाऽहं न संशयः । पत्राग्रप्राशने यस्तु करिष्यति मनो यदि । तस्य पापसहस्राणि यास्यंति विलयं स्वयम

Transliteration

pūjanārthāya vidhaye dhanadā'haṃ na saṃśayaḥ | patrāgraprāśane yastu kariṣyati mano yadi | tasya pāpasahasrāṇi yāsyaṃti vilayaṃ svayama

Translation

Zum Zwecke der Verehrung und rechten rituellen Befolgung werde ich ohne Zweifel zur Spenderin von Reichtum. Und wenn jemand auch nur im Geist beschließt, die Blattspitze zu kosten (als Gelübde), dann werden tausendfach seine Sünden von selbst vergehen.
