Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 39
मृतपुत्रा तथा विप्राः संगमे स्नानमाचरेत् । दोषैः प्रमुच्यते सर्वैर्गोमप्युदधिसंगमे । स्नात्वा सुखमवाप्नोति प्रजां च चिरजीविनीम्
mṛtaputrā tathā viprāḥ saṃgame snānamācaret | doṣaiḥ pramucyate sarvairgomapyudadhisaṃgame | snātvā sukhamavāpnoti prajāṃ ca cirajīvinīm
ହେ ବିପ୍ରମାନେ! ମୃତପୁତ୍ରା ନାରୀ ମଧ୍ୟ ସଙ୍ଗମରେ ସ୍ନାନ କରୁ। ଗୋମତୀ–ସମୁଦ୍ର ସଙ୍ଗମରେ ସ୍ନାନ କଲେ ସମସ୍ତ ଦୋଷରୁ ମୁକ୍ତି ମିଳେ। ସେଠାରେ ସ୍ନାନ କରି ସୁଖ ଓ ଦୀର୍ଘାୟୁ ସନ୍ତାନ ପାଏ।
