**Padma Purana** Shtrughna Kumar, though endowed with the heart of a protector of Mathurapuri, was deeply attached to it. Just as Rama could not find solace without Vaidehi, so too, Shtrughna could not find solace without Mathura. ||28|| The union of beautiful things with beings is like a dream, fleeting and ephemeral. It generates a sorrow far greater than the scorching heat of the summer sun. ||2|| Thus ends the ninetieth chapter of the Padma Purana, titled "Mathura Upa-sarga," narrated by the sage Ravishena. ||10|| She was beautiful, skilled in fulfilling all desires like the wish-fulfilling cow, and adorned with heavenly pleasures. Yet, the heart of Shtrughna Kumar remained deeply attached to Mathura. Just as Rama could not find solace without Sita, so too, Shtrughna could not find solace without Mathura. ||27-28|| Gautama Swami said, "O Shrenika! When beings experience the union of beautiful things, it is like a dream, fleeting and ephemeral. It generates a sorrow far greater than the scorching heat of the summer sun." ||26|| Thus ends the ninetieth chapter of the Padma Purana, titled "Mathura Upa-sarga," narrated by the sage Ravishena. ||10||
