[The Statement of the Pushkarod Ocean] Go, here, in this place, the rising of the ocean of Varuna is desired, even until the rising. / Therefore, it is said thus. / There, the gods Varuni and Varunakaanta remain in the state of Mahiddiya, even until the transformation, even until the end. / In the Varunavara, how many moons are there, in the Prabhasis? / All is to be said according to the number of Jois. / 180. (i) The ocean named Varunod, which is established in a round and circular form, is situated surrounding the Varunavara island on all sides. That Varunod ocean is established with a uniform circular wall, not with a non-uniform circular wall, etc., all statements should be said as before. / The diameter and circumference should be said to be one lakh yojanas in number. The Padmavara-vedika, the forest-tract, the gate, the gate-interval, the touching of the regions, the origin of life, and the questions related to meaning should be said as before. [O Bhagavan! Why is the Varunod ocean called the Varunod ocean?] Gautama! The water of the Varunod ocean is the well-known sura named Chandra-prabha, the Manishalaaka-sura, the best Sidhu-sura, the best Varuni-sura, the passava of Dhaataki-leaves, the Pushpa-asava, the Choya-asava, the Phala-asava, the Madhu, the Meraka, the Jaati-pushpa, the fragrant, pleasant sura, the essence of date-palm, the essence of Mridhika (grape), the Kapishaayana-sura, the well-cooked juice of sugarcane, the sura prepared by hundreds of physicians in the Pausha month, with many ingredients, free from defects, and made with special treatment, repeatedly washed, with excellent intoxicating power, produced from the offering of Paata (beaten) barley, the sura named Jambha-phala-kalivar-prasanna, the sweet, thick, pleasant, very excellent in taste, quickly touching the lips and moving forward, making the eyes slightly red, mixed with cardamom, etc., causing a slight bitterness (pungency) after drinking, colored, fragrant, pleasant to touch, palatable, especially tasty, nourishing the elements, digestive (kindling the digestive fire), aphrodisiac (arousing desire), and producing delight in all the senses and the body, etc., is the water of the Varunod ocean like that? Gautama! No. / The water of the Varunod ocean is even more desirable, more radiant, more beloved, more pleasant, and more satisfying to the mind than these. Therefore, it is called the Varunod ocean. There, two gods named Varuni and Varunakaanta remain in the state of Mahiddiya, even until the state of Palyopama. Therefore, it is also called the Varunod ocean. / Or, O Gautama! The Varunod ocean (in terms of substance) is eternal, it always was, is, and will be, therefore, its name is also eternal, being without cause.
