Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 30
गतां दृष्ट्वा ततो देवीमृषींश्चैव तपोधनान् । भृगुश्च परमेष्ठी स विषादमगमत्परम् । प्रसादयामास पुनः शङ्करं त्रिपुरान्तकम्
gatāṃ dṛṣṭvā tato devīmṛṣīṃścaiva tapodhanān | bhṛguśca parameṣṭhī sa viṣādamagamatparam | prasādayāmāsa punaḥ śaṅkaraṃ tripurāntakam
Al ver que la Diosa se había ido y que los rishis, ricos en austeridad, también habían partido, Bhṛgu, aquel excelso, cayó en honda tristeza. Entonces buscó de nuevo aplacar a Śaṅkara, el destructor de Tripura.

FAQs

No tīrtha is named in the verse; it remains within the Revā Khaṇḍa sacred-narrative context.
Propitiation of Śiva (prasādana) through tapas is implied as the practical response.
