## Thirty-eighth Chapter **177** **Mogair naasti mama prayojanam ime gacchantu naashankhala** **Ityeshaam yadi sarvadaapi kurute nindamaal dveshakaha. Etaihi sarvagunopapattipatubhir yaato'pi shringam gireh** **Nityam 'yaati tathaapi nirjitaravirdiptya janah sangamam.** ||143|| **Ityarshe ravishenaacharyaprokta padmacharite jitpadmopakhyaanam naama ashtatrimshattamam parvam.** ||38|| Those who have accumulated a great store of **punya** (merit), are dear to all beings. They go to various countries, performing excellent deeds, and in each country they find an abundance of delicious food and other comforts, which are beyond compare and rare for others. ||142|| "I have no use for these people. Let them go to destruction." A person who intensely hates worldly pleasures, constantly criticizes them and even goes to the top of a mountain to renounce them, will still be drawn to them, just as the sun, though victorious over the darkness, continues to shine. A person of **punya** (merit) is capable of attaining all virtues and will always be in contact with these pleasures, even if they do not desire them. ||143|| Thus ends the thirty-eighth chapter of the **Padmacharita**, narrated by the **Acharya** Ravishena, known as the **Aarsha** (ancient) text, which describes the story of **Jitpadma**. ||38||
