Skanda Purana — Avanti Khanda, Shloka 102
एवं ते किंकराः सर्वे पर्यटन्नरकमण्डले । नरकेऽपि स्थितिस्तस्य नास्ति पापस्य दुर्मतेः
evaṃ te kiṃkarāḥ sarve paryaṭannarakamaṇḍale | narake'pi sthitistasya nāsti pāpasya durmateḥ
Demikianlah semua para kenkara itu terus merayau di segenap lingkungan neraka. Bagi si pendosa yang berakal jahat itu, bahkan di neraka pun tiada tempat tinggal yang tetap.
