Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 45
कन्या च यत्र वै वल्ली रोहीनाम जटी गृहे । अगस्त्य पादपो वापि बंधुजीवो गृहेषु वै
kanyā ca yatra vai vallī rohīnāma jaṭī gṛhe | agastya pādapo vāpi baṃdhujīvo gṛheṣu vai
आणि ज्या घरात ‘कन्या’ नावाची वेल, ‘रोही’ नावाची जटाधारी वनस्पती, ‘अगस्त्य’ नावाचा पादप, किंवा घरांत ‘बंधुजीव’ असतो—ते घर अशा प्रभावांस योग्य मानले जाते।
