Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 37
सूत उवाच । एवमुक्त्वा चतुर्वक्त्रस्ततश्चादर्शनं गतः । कस्यचित्त्वथ कालस्य प्रेरितः कालधर्मणा । प्रोवाच सचिवान्सोऽथ पितुर्वैरमनुस्मरन्
sūta uvāca | evamuktvā caturvaktrastataścādarśanaṃ gataḥ | kasyacittvatha kālasya preritaḥ kāladharmaṇā | provāca sacivānso'tha piturvairamanusmaran
スータは語った。かく言い終えると、四面の御方（梵天）は姿を消した。しばらくして、時の法に促され、彼（アンダカ）は父への怨みを思い起こし、家臣たちに告げた。
Sūta
Scene: Brahmā (four-faced) finishes speaking and dissolves into light; the scene shifts to Andhaka in a council hall, shadowed by the looming presence of Time—suggested by a dark wheel or hourglass motif—before he addresses ministers.
