Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 6
गेहिनो हेलया जिग्युर्दस्यून्दूर्ग पतिर्यथा । न केऽपि प्रभवस्तां चाप्यनुकर्तुं गृहेश्वरीम्
gehino helayā jigyurdasyūndūrga patiryathā | na ke'pi prabhavastāṃ cāpyanukartuṃ gṛheśvarīm
Ang mga maybahay ay madaling nagwawagi sa mga suliranin, gaya ng panginoon ng kuta na dumadaig sa mga tulisan. Ngunit wala talagang sinuman ang may kapangyarihang tularan ang gṛheśvarī, ang ginang ng tahanan, sa kanyang pagtaguyod at pag-iingat.
Daityendra/Vajrāṅga (continued reflection; implied)
Scene: A fortified city/house as a ‘durgā’; the householder as vigilant guardian; bandit-like troubles repelled; at the center, the gṛheśvarī calmly sustaining the home—symbolizing the unseen strength that cannot be imitated.
