Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 72
अस्मदीयं सदा नाम कीर्तनीयमसंशयम् । श्राद्धकृत्येषु सर्वेषु यथा तेन समा वयम् । भवामस्त्वत्प्रसादेन सांप्रतं चित्रशर्मणा
asmadīyaṃ sadā nāma kīrtanīyamasaṃśayam | śrāddhakṛtyeṣu sarveṣu yathā tena samā vayam | bhavāmastvatprasādena sāṃprataṃ citraśarmaṇā
आमचे नावही सदैव, निःसंशय, कीर्तनीय राहो. आणि सर्व श्राद्धकर्मांत तुमच्या प्रसादाने आम्ही आता चित्रशर्म्याच्या सम होवो.
