Varaha Purana 89.9: Adhyaya 89, Shloka 9
The Hierarchy of the Trimūrti and the Manifestation of the Goddess Trikalā
ततश्चैते मया सर्वे प्रोक्ता देवा भवं प्रति । गच्छाम इति देवेश ततस्त्वेते समागताः ॥
tataś caite mayā sarve proktā devā bhavaṁ prati | gacchāma iti deveśa tatas tv ete samāgatāḥ ||
ତାପରେ ମୁଁ ଏହି ସମସ୍ତ ଦେବମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିଲି—‘ହେ ଦେବେଶ! ଆମେ ଭବଙ୍କ ପାଖକୁ ଯାଉ।’ ସେହି କାରଣରୁ ଏମାନେ ଏଠାରେ ସମବେତ ହୋଇଛନ୍ତି।
