In the Harivamsha Purana, those who are oceans of form and knowledge, knowing each other's true nature, and delighted by the experience of the three goals of life, like Charudatta, reside happily. ||185||
The Shārdūlavikrīḍita verse says: Even if a man, though impoverished, falls into the ocean, or descends into a well, or wanders on the inaccessible shores of a mountain, or even reaches another island, he attains all prosperity by the destruction of his sins. Therefore, O wise ones, gather the jewel of Dharma, the *chintamani*, taught by the Jinas. ||186||
Thus ends the twenty-first chapter, named "The Story of Charudatta," in the Harivamsha Purana, composed by Jinasena Acharya, which is a collection of the Arishtanemi Purana. ||21||
