Hairaṇyavat Kṣetra

हैरण्यवत क्षेत्र

Two parts in 190, the northern mirror of Haimavat.

Between Rukmī and Śikharī, watered by Suvarṇakūlā and Rūpyakūlā — the gold-banked and the silver-banked rivers, named for the mountains they fall from.

One palyopama of life, 2,000 bows of height, twin births, no work, no liberation.

समयं गोयम! मा पमायए

Do not be heedless, Gautama, for even a single samaya.
