स्फटिकमयमहीभृत्पादजाभ्यश्शिलाभ्यः प्रसरदमृतकल्पस्स्वच्छपानीयरम्यम् ॥ अतिरसफलवृक्षप्रायमव्यालसत्त्वं तपस उचितमासीन्नैमिषं तन्मुनीनाम् ॥ ६३ ॥

This Naimiṣa forest was the fitting place for the penance of the sages. It was beautiful with nectarine clear water flowing from the bottom rocks of the crystalline mountain. It abounded in fruit-bearing trees and was free from beasts of prey.
