Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 36
पुष्प उवाच । मम रूपं समाधाय त्वमायातो गृहे मम । शून्यं मत्वा ततो ज्ञातस्त्वयाऽहं गृहसंस्थितः
puṣpa uvāca | mama rūpaṃ samādhāya tvamāyāto gṛhe mama | śūnyaṃ matvā tato jñātastvayā'haṃ gṛhasaṃsthitaḥ
புஷ்பன் கூறினான்—என் உருவத்தை ஏற்று நீ என் இல்லத்திற்குவந்தாய். அது வெறுமை என எண்ணி, பின்னர் என் மூலம் நீ அறிந்தாய்; நான் இல்லத்திலேயே இருந்தேன் என்று।
Puṣpa
Scene: Puṣpa speaks, revealing that the intruder took his form; the intruder, thinking the house empty, is startled as Puṣpa emerges or is shown present within—like a hidden witness stepping into view.
