Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 6
न च पश्यति पुत्राणां कदाचिद्व्यसनं द्विजाः । न वियोगं न दुःखं च स्वप्नांते च कदाचन
na ca paśyati putrāṇāṃ kadācidvyasanaṃ dvijāḥ | na viyogaṃ na duḥkhaṃ ca svapnāṃte ca kadācana
ஓ த்விஜர்களே, புத்ரர்களுக்கு எப்போதும் துன்பம் வருவதை ஒருவர் காணார்; பிரிவும் இல்லை, துக்கமும் இல்லை—கனவின் முடிவிலும் கூட ஒருபோதும் இல்லை।
