Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 47
अपि वा त्र्यंबकः पुत्रि नैनं शक्तः कुतोऽन्यकः । तस्मादेनं नमस्कृत्य भाविनं श्वशुरं शुभे
api vā tryaṃbakaḥ putri nainaṃ śaktaḥ kuto'nyakaḥ | tasmādenaṃ namaskṛtya bhāvinaṃ śvaśuraṃ śubhe
Wahai putri, bahkan Tryambaka (Śiva) sendiri tidak sanggup menundukkannya—apalagi yang lain. Maka, wahai yang suci, tunduklah memberi hormat kepadanya, sebab dialah calon ayah mertuamu kelak.
Kāmakhyā Devī
Scene: Kāmakhyā addresses the woman as ‘daughter,’ revealing that even Tryambaka cannot subdue Mādhava; the woman is guided to bow, with a vision-like hint of future familial bond.
