Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 23
ब्राह्मणा ऊचुः । गुरुशिष्यसमुत्थोऽयमुपदेशो महीपते । प्रार्थयामो वयं किंचिन्मा भयं त्वं समाविश
brāhmaṇā ūcuḥ | guruśiṣyasamuttho'yamupadeśo mahīpate | prārthayāmo vayaṃ kiṃcinmā bhayaṃ tvaṃ samāviśa
ब्राह्मण म्हणाले—हे महीपते! हा उपदेश गुरु-शिष्याच्या योग्य नात्यातूनच उत्पन्न होतो. आम्ही आपल्याकडे काही विनंती करतो; आपल्या मनात भय येऊ नये.
