The editor says Samantabhadra's seat (pīṭha) was at Gerasappā; in the forest where he lived a large four-faced stone temple, a Jvālāmālinī temple and a Pārśvanātha shrine still stand, with images scattered about. By tradition there is a perfected mercury well (siddha rasakūpa) in that forest, to be used when a crisis of dharma arises in the Kali age, which can be seen by applying a collyrium called sarvāñjana to the eyes; the Puṣpāyurveda gives the method of preparing sarvāñjana and says the flowers for it grow in that region, which is therefore called 'Ratnagarbhā Vasundharā' (the earth with gems in her womb). He urges that such works be recovered.

Why it is kept for review: Jain medical tradition (Samantabhadra's seat and a legend about it).

दंत कथा परम्परा से रात है कि इस जंगल में एक सिद्द रस कूप है। कलियुग में जब धर्म संकट उपस्थित होगा, उस समय इस रसकूप का उपयोग करने के लिए आदेश दिया गया है।
