Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 29
तस्यास्तद्वचनं श्रुत्वा स्वप्नावस्थाकृतो हृषिः । अन्तर्हितो मुहूर्तं च शाण्डिल्याश्च प्रपश्य ताम्
tasyāstadvacanaṃ śrutvā svapnāvasthākṛto hṛṣiḥ | antarhito muhūrtaṃ ca śāṇḍilyāśca prapaśya tām
तिचे वचन ऐकून मुनी जणू स्वप्नावस्थेत गेले तसे हर्षित झाले. मग ते क्षणभर अंतर्धान पावले, आणि शाण्डिल्या त्यांना पाहत राहिली.
