Varaha Purana 98.33: Adhyaya 98, Shloka 33
Chapter on the Sacred Hill Episode: Satyatapā and the Marvel of Varāha
यद्गत्वा न पुनर्जन्म भवतीति न संशयः ॥ एवमुक्त्वा तु तौ सिद्धावुभौ सत्यतपारुणी
yadgatvā na punarjanma bhavatīti na saṃśayaḥ || evamuktvā tu tau siddhāv ubhau satyatapāruṇī
そこに至れば、再び生まれることはないと疑いはない。そう語り終えると、二人の成就者（シッダ）は、真実と苦行（タパス tapas）に燃えつつ進んだ。
