Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 22
सर्वसंगीतविद्यासु न मत्तोऽन्यास्ति काचन । मम योगेन तुष्यंति सर्वा अपि सुरस्त्रियः
sarvasaṃgītavidyāsu na matto'nyāsti kācana | mama yogena tuṣyaṃti sarvā api surastriyaḥ
ಎಲ್ಲ ಸಂಗೀತವಿದ್ಯೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ನನ್ನ ಸಮಾನ ಮತ್ತೊಬ್ಬಳಿಲ್ಲ; ನನ್ನ ಯೋಗಪ್ರಭಾವದಿಂದ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ದೇವಪತ್ನಿಯರೂ ತೃಪ್ತಿಯಾಗಿ ಹರ್ಷಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ।
