Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 31
ततो वर्षशतस्यांते तुतोष शशिशेखरः । प्रत्यक्षीभूय मामाह मेघगंभीरया गिरा
tato varṣaśatasyāṃte tutoṣa śaśiśekharaḥ | pratyakṣībhūya māmāha meghagaṃbhīrayā girā
Pagkaraan, sa pagtatapos ng isang daang taon, nalugod si Śaśiśekhara (Śiva). Nagpakita Siya nang hayagan at nagsalita sa akin sa tinig na malalim na gaya ng kulog sa ulap.
