Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 29
तस्यास्तद्वचनं श्रुत्वा स्वप्नावस्थाकृतो हृषिः । अन्तर्हितो मुहूर्तं च शाण्डिल्याश्च प्रपश्य ताम्
tasyāstadvacanaṃ śrutvā svapnāvasthākṛto hṛṣiḥ | antarhito muhūrtaṃ ca śāṇḍilyāśca prapaśya tām
Mendengar kata-katanya, sang resi—seolah-olah berada dalam keadaan mimpi—menjadi gembira; dan seketika beliau lenyap dari pandangan, sementara Śāṇḍilyā memerhatikannya.
