Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 63
इंद्रियाणां सात्त्विकाच्च त्रिगुणानि च तान्यपि । एतैः संसिद्धयंत्रेण सच्चिदानन्दवीक्षणात्
iṃdriyāṇāṃ sāttvikācca triguṇāni ca tānyapi | etaiḥ saṃsiddhayaṃtreṇa saccidānandavīkṣaṇāt
And from the sāttvic aspect arise the faculties (indriya-s) of perception and action; they too operate under the three guṇa-s. By this instrument of perfected discipline, through the vision of Sat–Cit–Ānanda (Being–Consciousness–Bliss), one attains fulfillment.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced, Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narrative style)
Scene: A yogin in a temple corridor: senses depicted as five horses being gently reined; above, a luminous triad-inscription Sat-Cit-Ānanda radiates from a Śiva-liṅga, indicating inner vision arising from disciplined instrumentality.
