Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 82
नान्येनात्र नरेणापि दृष्टिमात्रमपि क्षितौ । पर्वताग्रेषु दुर्गेषु चागम्येषु च देहिनाम् । वासः संपत्स्यते नित्यं सर्वभोगविवर्जितः
nānyenātra nareṇāpi dṛṣṭimātramapi kṣitau | parvatāgreṣu durgeṣu cāgamyeṣu ca dehinām | vāsaḥ saṃpatsyate nityaṃ sarvabhogavivarjitaḥ
येथे पृथ्वीवर त्यांना दुसऱ्या कोणत्याही पुरुषाचे केवळ दर्शनही होणार नाही. पर्वतशिखरांवरील दुर्गम, देहधाऱ्यांना अगम्य स्थानी त्यांचा नित्य वास होईल—सर्व भोगसुखांपासून वंचित.
