na teṣu māyā lobho vā īrṣyāsūyā bhayaṃ kutaḥ
viparyayo na teṣvasti tadvai svābhāvikaṃ smṛtam //
Almost similar is the condition of age in the other five Dvîpas, regard being had to the superiority and otherwise of the khaṇḍas. There is no confusion in the varṇas there, and the people of that place are happy, as they seldom deviate from the path of virtue. There are no such things as fraud, greed, jealousy, fear and malicious fault finding. The country is free from vices and is truly natural. There is none to inflict punishment there, nor on whom punishment should be inflicted. The people being virtuous, get mutual protection from their own virtuous deeds.—41-44.
