Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 35
साधु साधु महाभाग सत्त्ववांस्तु भुजंगम । त्वया भक्त्या गृहीतोऽहं प्रीतस्ते ह्युरगेश्वर । वरं याचय मे क्षिप्रं यस्ते मनसि वर्तते
sādhu sādhu mahābhāga sattvavāṃstu bhujaṃgama | tvayā bhaktyā gṛhīto'haṃ prītaste hyurageśvara | varaṃ yācaya me kṣipraṃ yaste manasi vartate
साधु, साधु, महाभाग व सत्त्ववान नागा! तुझ्या भक्तीने मी प्रसन्न होऊन वश झालो; हे उरगेश्वर, मी तुझ्यावर संतुष्ट आहे. तुझ्या मनात जो वर आहे तो त्वरेने माझ्याकडे माग।

FAQs
Bhakti and steadfast tapas attract Śiva’s grace, culminating in direct communion and boon-bestowal.
The setting remains the Revā/Narmadā region of the Revā Khaṇḍa, though this verse centers on Śiva’s encounter rather than a named tīrtha.
No formal ritual is prescribed; the emphasis is on devotion (bhakti) and the fruition of tapas in receiving a boon.
