Chapter 7: Dvīpa–Varṣa–Meru-varṇana
Description of the Dvīpa, Varṣas, and Mount Meru
एकैकमनुरक्तं च चक्रवाकसमं विभो । निरामयाश्च ते लोका नित्यं मुदितमानसा:,प्रभो! वे चकवा-चकवीके समान सदा एक-दूसरेके अनुकूल बने रहते हैं। उत्तरकुरुके लोग सदा नीरोग और प्रसन्नचित्त रहते हैं
ekaikam anuraktaṃ ca cakravākasamaṃ vibho | nirāmayāś ca te lokā nityaṃ muditamānasāḥ prabho ||
হে বিভো! তাত প্ৰতিজনে চক্রৱাক-যুগলৰ দৰে পৰস্পৰৰ প্ৰতি অনুৰক্ত থাকে। হে প্ৰভো! তাতৰ লোকসকল নিৰাময় আৰু নিত্য প্ৰসন্নচিত্ত।
