Namasthe!

May I please know in which Purana " Sri Tamraparni Mahatmyam" is available?. Is it in Sankara Samhita of Sri Skanda Purana?.

I'm in search of "Sri Sankara Samhita" to translate our Kshetra Mahatmyam. But I couldn't find the text till now.

The Skanda Purana VERSION consisting of 8 Khandas (Maheswara to Ambika Khanda is easily available http://vedicreserve.mum.edu/skanda.htm).

But, in Sri Skanda MAHApurana VERSION (containing SIX Samhitas) some Samhitas are NOT AVAILABLE to me after several years of searching in libraries. The SIX Samhitas are:

1.Sanatkumara Samhita (available)
2.Sutha Samhitha (available)

3.**SANKARA SAMHITHA (NOT AVAILABLE)**

4.Vaishnava "
5. Brahma "  (available)
6.Soura Samhita (available)

The 3rd  Samhita, "SAnkara Samhita" (also known as Agasthya Samhita, as many khandas are narrated by Sri Agasthyar) consists of TWO parts. First part consisting of 7 Khandas. And the Second consists of 14 Khandas. Totally 1933 Chapters are there. And the last of Part Two is specially known as "Agasthya KHANDA" as it contains a NUMBER OF MAHATMYAS. Several Temple's Sthala Purana is said to be said in this Khanda.

I got the above information from a old book Sthala purana book which shortly says the Mahatmyas in english. The very old aged Author of that book says that his Grantha Manuscript of Sankara Samhita of Skanda Mahapurana used for reference has almost been destroyed by termites  (some decades ago). And his mission was to TRANSLATE Our Kshetra Mahatmya verse by verse in Tamil, which he couldn't accomplish due to his old age.

MY APPEAL:

Could you please provide me "Sankara Samhita" text if it is available with you, as it would help me to TRANSLATE the Sanskrit text with Tamil translation for the benefit of our Kshetravasis, who are unaware about the greatness of our Kshetra?.

Re-Marriage for girls in Kaliyuga:




When her husband is missing, or is dead, or has
renounced the world, or is impotent, or has been degraded
by sin, — on any of the said five calamities befalling a woman,
law has ordained another husband for her.

- Sri Parashara Smriti 4.30



 If a woman has led a continent life, after her lord
departed his life, she wins a region of bliss after her death,
like to the well-known male observers of a celebate life.

- Sri Parashara Smriti 4.31
