Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 37
इति स्तुत्वा हरिं विप्रास्तूष्णीमास्ते स गालवः । श्रुत्वा स्तुतिं श्रुति सुखां हरिस्तस्यमहात्मनः
iti stutvā hariṃ viprāstūṣṇīmāste sa gālavaḥ | śrutvā stutiṃ śruti sukhāṃ haristasyamahātmanaḥ
Setelah demikian memuji Hari, brāhmaṇa Gālava pun duduk diam. Mendengar pujian yang merdu di telinga itu, Tuhan Hari mendengarkan kata-kata sang resi yang berhati agung.
