Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 47
तिर्य्यग्योनिगता ये च ये च कीटत्वमागताः । स्नानमात्रेण ते सर्वे मुक्तिं यांति न संशयः
tiryyagyonigatā ye ca ye ca kīṭatvamāgatāḥ | snānamātreṇa te sarve muktiṃ yāṃti na saṃśayaḥ
អ្នកដែលកើតក្នុងយោនីសត្វ (តិរយ្យគ្យោនី) និងអ្នកដែលក្លាយជាសត្វល្អិត—ទាំងអស់នោះ ដោយស្រោចទឹកស្នានតែប៉ុណ្ណោះ ក៏ទៅដល់មោក្សៈ ដោយគ្មានសង្ស័យ។
Skanda (deduced from Dvārakā Māhātmya narrative context)
Tirtha: Gomatī–samudra-saṅgama (Dvārakā)
Type: sangam
Scene: At the river’s mouth where the Gomatī meets the ocean, pilgrims bathe; the scene subtly includes animals and tiny insects near the waterline, suggesting even non-human beings are uplifted by the tirtha’s power; distant Dvārakā shrines and sea-waves frame the sanctity.
