Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 111
यथा स्वेष्वनुवर्तेत न तथान्येषु भामिनी । मनुस्तु क्षांतवांस्तस्या भविष्यो यो हि पार्वति
yathā sveṣvanuvarteta na tathānyeṣu bhāminī | manustu kṣāṃtavāṃstasyā bhaviṣyo yo hi pārvati
हे भामिनी! ती आपल्या मुलांची इच्छेप्रमाणे सेवा करी, पण इतरांची तशी नाही. तरीही, हे पार्वती, पुढे मनु होणाऱ्या मनुने तिचे वर्तन सहन केले.
