30.p143

“The Sugati River flows east from Lake Sudarśana, and it’s a yojana wide. Its current flows gently without any rapids, and it’s covered with many flowers that float downstream smoothly. That river flows between two rows of various trees. Their branches are flexible, and their flowers and fruit are bountiful. Lush grass grows in clockwise coils on the land. It has the color of a peacock or a kingfisher and the fragrance of vārṣika flowers, and it’s soft as heavenly cloth. The ground is also soft to walk on. The earth sinks four inches and then springs back when one lifts their foot. The land is level like the palm of a hand, without any high or low points.
