- Matsya Purana — Adbhuta-shanti-adhyaya (Mula-nakshatra adbhutas, Varuni-mahashanti), verse 27 (Gita Press ed., lines 113101-113150) — 'मूले वरुणदैवत्ये ये भवन्त्यद्भुतास्तथा वारुणी तेषु कर्तव्या महाशान्तिर्महीक्षिता'Establishes Mula's Nirriti/Varuna devata-vibhaga and prescribes mahashanti — confirming Mula's intense, occult character that intensifies on Amavasya.
- Skanda Purana — Pitru-tarpana-mahatmya (Amavasya pitru-karma section), amavasya-shraddha prescriptions (Sankshipta ed., lines 157351-157400) — 'प्रमादी वंशज पितरोंका तर्पण नहीं करते, तब उनके पितर ... भूख-प्याससे व्याकुल'Amavasya is the canonical pitru-tarpana day; combined with Mula (Nirriti/Ketu nakshatra) it becomes the rare Mula-Amavasya for tantric Pitru-Ketu sadhana.
