Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 41
क्षुन्निद्रा त्वं तृषा त्वं च क्रोधतंद्रादयस्तथा । त्वं शांतिस्त्वं रतिश्चैव त्वं जया विजया तथा
kṣunnidrā tvaṃ tṛṣā tvaṃ ca krodhataṃdrādayastathā | tvaṃ śāṃtistvaṃ ratiścaiva tvaṃ jayā vijayā tathā
あなたは飢えであり眠りであり、また渇きでもある。さらに怒り、怠惰などもまたあなたである。あなたは寂静、あなたは歓喜。あなたは勝利であり、また凱旋でもある。
