Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 42
तद्ब्रवीतु महा सेन स्वयं साक्षी महेश्वरः । एवं वदति गोविंदे साधुवादो महानभूत्
tadbravītu mahā sena svayaṃ sākṣī maheśvaraḥ | evaṃ vadati goviṃde sādhuvādo mahānabhūt
महासेन ही इसका कथन करे; स्वयं महेश्वर प्रत्यक्ष साक्षी हैं। गोविन्द के ऐसा कहने पर “साधु! साधु!” का महान् जयघोष उठ खड़ा हुआ।
