Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 65
एवं महोत्सवो जज्ञे तत स्तुंबुरुपूर्वकैः । गीयमानेषु गीतेषु यथापूर्वं त्रिविष्टपे
evaṃ mahotsavo jajñe tata stuṃburupūrvakaiḥ | gīyamāneṣu gīteṣu yathāpūrvaṃ triviṣṭape
Assim nasceu uma grande festividade; e, quando Tumburu e outros entoavam os cânticos, parecia as celebrações de Triviṣṭapa (o céu) nos tempos antigos.
