Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 73
स्वधया स्वाहया सार्धं सदा दुःखसमन्वितः । नैवाप्स्यसि परं सौख्यं सर्वकालं यथा पुरा
svadhayā svāhayā sārdhaṃ sadā duḥkhasamanvitaḥ | naivāpsyasi paraṃ saukhyaṃ sarvakālaṃ yathā purā
Bersama Svadhā dan Svāhā, engkau akan sentiasa diselubungi dukacita; engkau tidak akan lagi mencapai kebahagiaan tertinggi pada bila-bila masa, seperti dahulu.
Unspecified (curse continuation; context suggests address to Agni, who is associated with Svāhā; Svadhā linked with Pitṛ offerings)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Agni flanked by personified Svāhā and Svadhā (two feminine deities), all three shown with downcast expressions; flames subdued; a shadow of sorrow over the yajña space.
