Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 12
समर्था ये न पश्यन्ति प्रभासस्थां सरस्वतीम् । ते देशास्तानि तीर्थानि आश्रमास्ते च पर्वताः
samarthā ye na paśyanti prabhāsasthāṃ sarasvatīm | te deśāstāni tīrthāni āśramāste ca parvatāḥ
Ceux qui, bien qu’ils le puissent, ne contemplent pas Sarasvatī demeurant à Prabhāsa : ces contrées, ces tīrthas, ces āśramas et ces montagnes qu’ils fréquentent ne comptent pour rien en comparaison.
