Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 52
लीलां चकाराथ समृद्धतेजा अतोऽत्र मे पश्यत एव विप्राः । तेषां मया दर्शनमेव सर्वं यावन्मुहूर्तात्समकारि भूप
līlāṃ cakārātha samṛddhatejā ato'tra me paśyata eva viprāḥ | teṣāṃ mayā darśanameva sarvaṃ yāvanmuhūrtātsamakāri bhūpa
પછી મહાતેજસ્વી પ્રભુએ લીલા કરી. તેથી, હે વિપ્રો, મેં અહીં જે જોયું છે તે જુઓ—હે રાજા, એક જ મુહૂર્તમાં આ બધું મને પ્રત્યક્ષ થયું.
