Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 61
कौथुम उवाच । एवं ते वदमानस्य आयुर्भवतु ब्रह्मणः । साध्वी बुद्धिरियं तेऽस्तु कुतो नाध्येष्यतः परम्
kauthuma uvāca | evaṃ te vadamānasya āyurbhavatu brahmaṇaḥ | sādhvī buddhiriyaṃ te'stu kuto nādhyeṣyataḥ param
Kauthuma nói: “Con nói như vậy, nguyện con được thọ mạng như Phạm Thiên (Brahmā). Mong trí hiểu cao quý ấy thuộc về con—lẽ nào con lại không tiến lên học đạo cao hơn?”
