Then that R. took hold of those sons of M. and went to her palace; there she removed all the gross (lit. inauspicious) atomic particles from their bodies, infused the finer particles into their bodies, and then went on enjoying all sorts of pleasures with them; and every morning she used to offer them nectar(like) fruits.
(4.87). Then that R. was ordered by Susthita, the Lord of the salty main, at the instance of a message from S'akra, to visit (lit. to move about) for twenty-one times the salty main, and to remove, twentyone times, whatever grass, or leaves, or sticks, or rubbish, or filth, or impurity, or anything stinking, or unclean there might be, and to throw it away in a corner. Then that R. said to the sons of M. as follows:-"Thus, verily, O Beloved of gods, I have been ordered by Susthita, the Lord of Lavaņa etc. So, while I am, O Beloved of gods, busy there on the Lavaņa sea, you just stay on here in this very palace happily and comfortably.

There, the (following) two seasons are always prevalent (lit. at your command), viz. the Prāvrat and the Vars'ā seasons (i.e. the rainy season). And there, the rainy season is always prevalent, resembling a mighty elephant, with white tusks in the form of the (white) Kundala and the S'ilīnd bra flowers, with its plump trunk in the form of the flowers of the excellent Nikura, and with the sweet-smelling ichor in the form of the fragrant oozings from the Kuțaja, Arjuna, and the Nīpa trees. And there is also the Vars'ārātra season always present, resembling a mountain, with diverse jewels in the form of the (red) Indragopa insects, with the murmur of the rivulets in the form of the noise produced by the frogs, and with the mountain peaks in the form of the tree-tops encircled (or crowded) with peacocks. There, O Belo7ed of gods, you enjoy yourselves happily and comfortably in the various wells etc. ... upto ... in the series of lakes and tanks, as well as in the bowers of Ali and Māli creepers, and in the flower-arbours. If you, however, feel depressed, dejected and forlorn (or frightened) even there, then you might go to Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat
