53.36

yāni kipuruṣādyāni varjayitvā himāhvayam /
teṣāṃ svabāvataḥ siddhiḥ sukhaprāyā hyatnataḥ //

Perfection exists naturally in Kimpuruṣa, and the other continents[10] with the exception of that named from the mountain Hima[11]; and the perfection is almost complete happiness which comes without exertion. There is no adversity there, nor old age, death or fear; neither righteousness nor unrighteousness existed there, nor had the people differences of position, such as high, low or middling; nor have the four ages existed there, nor periodic times, nor the seasons of the year.

Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
