Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 66
प्रह्लाद उवाच । ताः कृष्णवचनं श्रुत्वा गोप्यो विध्वस्तबन्धनाः । विमुक्तसंशयक्लेशा दर्शनानन्दसंप्लुताः । ऊचुश्च गोपवध्वस्ताः कृष्णं निर्मलमानसाः
prahlāda uvāca | tāḥ kṛṣṇavacanaṃ śrutvā gopyo vidhvastabandhanāḥ | vimuktasaṃśayakleśā darśanānandasaṃplutāḥ | ūcuśca gopavadhvastāḥ kṛṣṇaṃ nirmalamānasāḥ
பிரஹ்லாதன் கூறினான்—கிருஷ்ணனின் வாக்கை கேட்டதும் கோபியரின் பந்தங்கள் சிதைந்தன. சந்தேகமும் துயரும் நீங்கி, அவரது தரிசன ஆனந்தத்தில் மூழ்கி, தூய மனத்துடன் அவர்கள் கிருஷ்ணனை நோக்கி உரைத்தனர்.
