Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 47
तथैव चारुवचनैः स्वेदसंनोदनैः परैः । या प्रियं प्रीणयेत्प्रीता त्रिलोकी प्रीणिता तया । मितं ददाति हि पिता मितं भ्राता सुतं सुतः
tathaiva cāruvacanaiḥ svedasaṃnodanaiḥ paraiḥ | yā priyaṃ prīṇayetprītā trilokī prīṇitā tayā | mitaṃ dadāti hi pitā mitaṃ bhrātā sutaṃ sutaḥ
Так же, сладкими речами и иными делами — как снятие усталости и пота — та, что с радостью радует любимого, тем самым радует три мира. Ибо отец даёт лишь в меру, брат — в меру, и сын — в меру.
