आद्यं रङ्गमिति प्रोक्तं विमानं रङ्गसंज्ञितम् । श्रीमुष्णं वेङ्कटाद्रिं च साळग्रामं च नैमिशम् ।
तोयाद्रिं पुष्करं चैव नरनारायणाश्रमम् । अष्टौ मे मूर्तयः सन्ति स्वयंव्यक्ता महीतले ॥
- Swayam Vyakta Sthalams (Muktinath is a Swayam Vyakta Kshetra)

गण्डक्यां गण्डपातञ्च तत्र सिद्धिर्न संशयः ।
तत्र सा गण्डकी चण्डी चक्रपाणिस्तु भैरवः ॥
