Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 29
एकविंशतिलक्षाणि एकैकस्य च योनयः । कुरु त्वं सकलं चाशु इत्युक्त्वांतरधीयत । ब्रह्मणा निर्मितं सर्वं ब्रह्मांडं च यथोदितम्
ekaviṃśatilakṣāṇi ekaikasya ca yonayaḥ | kuru tvaṃ sakalaṃ cāśu ityuktvāṃtaradhīyata | brahmaṇā nirmitaṃ sarvaṃ brahmāṃḍaṃ ca yathoditam
एकैकस्य योनयः एकविंशतिलक्षाणि; तत् सकलं त्वं शीघ्रं कुरु—इत्युक्त्वा भगवान् अन्तरधीयत। ततो ब्रह्मणा सर्वं निर्मितं, ब्रह्माण्डं च यथोदितम् अभवत्।
Śrī Viṣṇu (first half), Narrator (closing statement of completion)
Scene: Viṣṇu finishes the instruction and vanishes into radiance; Brahmā, energized, rapidly manifests the ordered cosmos—countless life-forms implied by swirling patterns and emerging landscapes within the cosmic egg.

No specific tīrtha is praised; the verse focuses on universal creation and the doctrine of many births.
None; it gives a cosmological count and command to create rather than a ritual.
