Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 19
तस्य तद्वचं श्रुत्वा भर्तृयज्ञ उदारधीः । अब्रवीत्सुचिरं ध्यात्वा ज्ञात्वा दिव्येन चक्षुषा
tasya tadvacaṃ śrutvā bhartṛyajña udāradhīḥ | abravītsuciraṃ dhyātvā jñātvā divyena cakṣuṣā
அவன் சொற்களை கேட்டதும், உயர்ந்த மனத்தையுடைய பர்த்ரியஜ்ஞன் நீண்ட நேரம் தியானித்து, தெய்வக் கண்ணோட்டத்தால் அறிந்து, உரைத்தான்।
