Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 90
स वै तदाकर्ण्य क्रुद्धो गुहः काल इवाभवत् । तस्य क्रुद्धस्य भ्रूपद्ममध्यात्काचिद्विनिर्गता
sa vai tadākarṇya kruddho guhaḥ kāla ivābhavat | tasya kruddhasya bhrūpadmamadhyātkācidvinirgatā
Ao ouvir isso, Guha enfureceu-se, como o próprio Tempo (a Morte). Do meio do lótus de suas sobrancelhas, enquanto ardia em ira, emergiu certa potência.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced for Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narration)
Scene: Guha hears the devas’ report and flares with kāla-like wrath; from the center of his brow-lotus a radiant entity begins to emerge.
