Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 88
भीम उवाच । विभ्रांतोऽसि ध्रुवं पार्थ नात्र हंता नरोऽपरः । अथ चेदस्ति त्वत्पौत्रमुच्चस्थं वच्मि हंत कः
bhīma uvāca | vibhrāṃto'si dhruvaṃ pārtha nātra haṃtā naro'paraḥ | atha cedasti tvatpautramuccasthaṃ vacmi haṃta kaḥ
Wika ni Bhīma: “Tunay na nalilinlang ka, O Pārtha; dito’y walang ibang ‘Tao’ na mamamatay-tao. Ngunit kung mayroon nga, sasabihin ko—sino ang marangal na iyon? Apo mo ba siya?”
Bhīma
