And he amassed wealth by means of righteousness, and righteousness again by means of wealth; and since those two things are not antagonistic, he enjoyed even the pleasures of sense. Thus many years passed away as if but a single day, while he ruled the earth, devoted to righteousness, wealth and the gratification of his desires. No feelings of indifference occurred while he enjoyed his loved objects of sense; nor again did he grow satiated in amassing righteousness and wealth. > — Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa - [Previous: 37.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya.37.2) - [Next: 37.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya.37.4) - [Up: 37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya.37) ## Translations (2) - [The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya~en-pargiter.37.p3) — Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya~en-mt.37.3) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya.37.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya.37.3) · Pramāṇa
