Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 55
तार्क्ष्य उवाच । न मे श्रमोऽस्ति लोकेश किंचित्संस्मरतश्च मे । यन्मे सुतान्वाहनत्वे कल्पयामास तारकः
tārkṣya uvāca | na me śramo'sti lokeśa kiṃcitsaṃsmarataśca me | yanme sutānvāhanatve kalpayāmāsa tārakaḥ
Tārkṣya thưa: “Bạch Đấng Chúa Tể muôn cõi, con chẳng hề mỏi mệt; nhất là khi con nhớ rằng Tāraka đã từng ép các con trai của con phải làm vật cưỡi, gánh chịu thân phận chuyên chở.”
Tārkṣya (Garuḍa)
Scene: Garuḍa speaks fiercely yet steadily to Hari, declaring he feels no fatigue, his eyes flashing as he recalls Tāraka’s humiliation of his sons.
