Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 26
तिर्यगूर्ध्वमधो याति नैव याति न तिष्ठति । इति चित्रं चरित्रं ते भर्त्तुर्नान्यस्य दृश्यते
tiryagūrdhvamadho yāti naiva yāti na tiṣṭhati | iti citraṃ caritraṃ te bhartturnānyasya dṛśyate
ព្រះអង្គចល័តទៅជំហៀង ឡើងលើ និងចុះក្រោម; ទោះយ៉ាងណា ព្រះអង្គមិនបាន “ទៅ” ពិតៗ ហើយក៏មិនដែលឈរនឹងទី។ នេះជាចរិតអស្ចារ្យពិសេសនៃព្រះម្ចាស់របស់អ្នក ដែលមិនឃើញមាននៅអ្នកដទៃឡើយ។
