Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 76
तस्य पुण्यफलं वक्तुं न तु वाचस्पतिः क्षमः । अस्माहके वृषोत्सर्गाद्यत्पुण्यं समवाप्यते
tasya puṇyaphalaṃ vaktuṃ na tu vācaspatiḥ kṣamaḥ | asmāhake vṛṣotsargādyatpuṇyaṃ samavāpyate
ആ കർമ്മത്തിന്റെ പുണ്യഫലം പറയാൻ വാചസ്പതിക്കും കഴിയില്ല; ഇവിടെ വൃഷോത്സർഗത്തിലൂടെ ലഭിക്കുന്ന മഹത്തായ പുണ്യം അപാരമാണ്।
