Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 47
गतजन्म सहस्राणि स्मराम्यद्य त्वदंतिके । निर्वेदश्च परो जातः प्रसन्नं हृदयं च मे
gatajanma sahasrāṇi smarāmyadya tvadaṃtike | nirvedaśca paro jātaḥ prasannaṃ hṛdayaṃ ca me
உங்கள் சன்னிதியில் இன்று நான் ஆயிரக்கணக்கான கடந்த பிறவிகளை நினைக்கிறேன். எனக்குள் ஆழ்ந்த வைராக்யம் எழுந்தது; என் இதயமும் மகிழ்ந்து தெளிவும் அமைதியும் பெற்றது.
