Rahular Itihasa / M. N. Dutt · Anushasana Parva Chapter 102 · Verse 22
Sanskrit Original
गौतम उवाच यत्रोत्तराः कुरवो भान्ति रम्या देवैः सार्धं मोदमाना नरेन्द्र। यत्राग्नियौनाश्च वसन्ति लोका अब्योनयः पर्वतयोनयश्च॥ यत्र शक्रो वर्षति सर्वकामान् यत्र स्त्रियः कामचारा भवन्ति। यत्र चा नास्ति नारीनराणां तत्र त्वाहं हस्तिनं यातयिष्ये॥
Gautama said If you go that region where the Uttara Kurus blaze in beauty and pass their days happily, O king, in the company of the very celestials, where those beings who originate from fire, those who originate from water, and those who originate from mountains, live happily, and where Shakra rains down the fruition of every desire, and where women live in perfect freedom, uncotrolled by rules of any kind regulating their conduct or motions, and where there is no feeling of jealousy among both the sexes, if you go there, even there shall I go and compel you to yield up this elephant to me.
