साहं तपश्चरिष्यामि गर्भं मे दातुमर्हसि | ईश्वरं शक्रहन्तारं त्वमनुज्ञातुमर्हसि || १-४६-३

sanskrit

- Such a bereaved mother as I am, I wish to undertake asceticism for a son who shall become an exterminator of Indra, and who shall be the ruler of worlds. As such, it will be apt of you to permit me for asceticism, and further it will be apt of you to accord me pregnancy with such a son.' Thus Diti spoke to her husband Kaashyapa. [1-46-3]
