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

Pour le culte et la juste observance, je deviens sans nul doute dispensatrice de richesse. Et si quelqu’un, ne fût-ce qu’en son esprit, se résout à goûter la pointe d’une feuille (en vœu), alors des milliers de ses fautes s’évanouiront d’elles-mêmes.
