Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 19
अयं मेरुश्च कैलासो मन्दराद्याः सहस्रशः । हिमाद्रिर्विंध्यशैलश्च श्रीशैलाद्याः प्रहर्षिताः । एते ह्यृषिगणाः सर्वे नमंतिस्म पुनःपुनः
ayaṃ meruśca kailāso mandarādyāḥ sahasraśaḥ | himādrirviṃdhyaśailaśca śrīśailādyāḥ praharṣitāḥ | ete hyṛṣigaṇāḥ sarve namaṃtisma punaḥpunaḥ
«នេះហើយ មេរុ និង កៃលាស; មន្ទរ និងភ្នំផ្សេងៗរាប់ពាន់។ ហិមាល័យ និងជួរភ្នំ វិន្ធ្យ; ស្រីសៃល និងអ្វីៗផ្សេងទៀត—ដោយសេចក្តីរីករាយ—បានមកប្រមូលផ្តុំ។ មែនហើយ ក្រុមឥសីទាំងអស់នេះ កោតគោរពម្ដងហើយម្ដងទៀត»។
