adhamottamaṃ na teṣvasti na lobho na parigrahaḥ
ārogyabalavantaśca ekāntasukhino narāḥ //

The people there are all of equal rank, neither high nor low; they are not greedy; nor do they store things. They are all healthy, powerful and happy, attaining all siddhis of the mind, for a period of 30,000 years. The next three Dvîpas enjoy the same happiness, life, beauty, virtue and prosperity. Thus I have described all the sacred Dvîpas up to Sâlmala (i.e., five). The Sâmaladvîpa is encircled by the Surâ Ocean, which is twice its size.—101-104.
