Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 73
अहं संवर्त्तको मेघस्त्वं च धारा ह्यनेकशः । अहं मुनीनां रूपेण त्वं तत्पत्नी प्रकीर्तिता
ahaṃ saṃvarttako meghastvaṃ ca dhārā hyanekaśaḥ | ahaṃ munīnāṃ rūpeṇa tvaṃ tatpatnī prakīrtitā
میں سَموَرتَک بادل ہوں؛ اور تُو بےشمار صورتوں میں بارش کی دھارائیں ہے۔ میں مُنیوں کے روپ میں جلوہ گر ہوں؛ اور تُو اُن کی پتنیوں کے طور پر مشہور کی گئی ہے۔

Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A dramatic sky over the Prabhāsa coast: a towering Saṃvartaka cloud mass looms, yet from it descend many rain-streams nourishing the land; below, sages in varied forms sit in āśramas, with their wives (ṛṣi-patnīs) offering water, herbs, and hospitality—balancing tapas and care.
