Skanda Purana — Vishnu Khanda, Shloka 66
एतत्क्षेत्रप्रमाणं तु धनुषां पञ्चविंशतिः । अत्र स्नानेन दानेन श्राद्धेन श्रद्धयान्वितः । सर्वपापविशुद्धात्मा विष्णुलोकं व्रजेन्नरः
etatkṣetrapramāṇaṃ tu dhanuṣāṃ pañcaviṃśatiḥ | atra snānena dānena śrāddhena śraddhayānvitaḥ | sarvapāpaviśuddhātmā viṣṇulokaṃ vrajennaraḥ
या क्षेत्राचे प्रमाण पंचवीस धनुष्य आहे. जो मनुष्य श्रद्धेने येथे स्नान, दान व श्राद्ध करतो, तो सर्व पापांपासून शुद्ध होऊन विष्णुलोकास जातो.
