Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 47
शीर्णांश्च शैलान्स चकार भूयो द्वीपान्समस्तांश्च तथार्णवांश्च । शैलोपलैर्ये विचिताः समन्ताच्छिलोच्चयांस्तान्स चकार कल्पे
śīrṇāṃśca śailānsa cakāra bhūyo dvīpānsamastāṃśca tathārṇavāṃśca | śailopalairye vicitāḥ samantācchiloccayāṃstānsa cakāra kalpe
Ia membentuk kembali gunung-ganang yang telah hancur, demikian juga segala dvīpa (benua) dan samudera. Kawasan yang di segenap penjuru berselerak batu-batu gunung, Ia jadikan timbunan batu yang tinggi menjulang demi tertibnya kalpa.
