Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 95
न जानंति भयान्नष्टं तस्मिन्सागरपर्वते । अन्विष्य चिरकालेन कृच्छ्रात्संप्राप्य तं ततः
na jānaṃti bhayānnaṣṭaṃ tasminsāgaraparvate | anviṣya cirakālena kṛcchrātsaṃprāpya taṃ tataḥ
भयामुळे तो त्या समुद्र-पर्वतावर लपला आहे हे त्यांना माहीत नव्हते; दीर्घकाळ शोधून, मोठ्या कष्टाने शेवटी तेथे त्याला मिळवले।
