Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 20
विचिन्वन्सकलामुर्वीं नापश्यत्तां द्विजर्षभः । सा ययौ विद्रुता धेनुस्तन्महद्राजगोधनम्
vicinvansakalāmurvīṃ nāpaśyattāṃ dvijarṣabhaḥ | sā yayau vidrutā dhenustanmahadrājagodhanam
ព្រាហ្មណ៍ដ៏ប្រសើរបំផុត បានស្វែងរកទូទាំងដីដល់គ្រប់ទីកន្លែង ក៏មិនឃើញនាងឡើយ។ គោនោះបានរត់គេចទៅឆ្ងាយ—នាងដែលជាទ្រព្យសម្បត្តិគោដ៏ធំរបស់ព្រះរាជា។

FAQs
Material value is secondary to dharma; when a sacred trust is lost, one must seek a righteous remedy rather than despair.
Dvārakā Māhātmya remains the framework; the verse supports its moral geography by depicting dharma in action.
None directly; it sets up the need for corrective action (often resolved through renewed dāna/atonement in Purāṇic patterns).
