3.143

Country of Shule (踈勒國: a corrupt abbreviation of Sanskrit. Properly it is Kharostra [佉路數怛勒], translated here as 'Land of Evil Nature', because the people of that country are mostly fierce and perverse. Alternatively, it is said that the country has Mount Kharostra, and took its name from the mountain. It is situated in the territory of Northern India).
