Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 90
धारणां सम्यगास्थाय समाधावचलो भवेत् । यदि नेच्छति ते मृत्युं ततो नासौ प्रपद्यते
dhāraṇāṃ samyagāsthāya samādhāvacalo bhavet | yadi necchati te mṛtyuṃ tato nāsau prapadyate
ដោយដាក់ចិត្តកាន់ធារណា ឲ្យត្រឹមត្រូវ គួរឲ្យឈរមាំមួនក្នុងសមាធិ។ បើមរណៈមិន “ប្រាថ្នា” អ្នកនៅពេលនោះ វាមិនអាចគ្រប់គ្រងអ្នកបានទេ។
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced)
Listener: Pāṇḍava
Scene: A yogin seated in padmāsana, breath subtle, mind fixed; behind him a personified Mṛtyu pauses at a threshold, unable to enter the circle of samādhi.
