Source: Wisdom Library: Kath腻sarits腻gara惭腻苍补辫补谤腻 (啶ぞ啶ㄠお啶班ぞ) is the wife of Arthalobha: the doorkeeper of king B腻hubala, according to the Kath腻sarits腻gara, chapter 43. Accordingly, as R腻jyadhara said to Narav腻hanadatta: 鈥�... he [Arthalobha] had a beautiful wife named 惭腻苍补辫补谤腻. That Arthalobha, being by profession a merchant, and on account of his avarice distrusting his servants, appointed that wife of his to look after his business in preference to them. She, though she did not like it, being obedient to him, made bargains with merchants and captivated all men by her sweet form and speech鈥�.
The story of 惭腻苍补辫补谤腻 and Arthalobha was narrated by R腻jyadhara in order to demonstrate that 鈥渁 fair woman, like Fortune, of her own accord chooses a man of high courage鈥�, as well as that 鈥渨ives and wealth leave the mean-spirited man and of their own accord come to the high-spirited man from every quarter鈥�.
The Kath腻sarits腻gara (鈥榦cean of streams of story鈥�), mentioning 惭腻苍补辫补谤腻, is a famous Sanskrit epic story revolving around prince Narav腻hanadatta and his quest to become the emperor of the 惫颈诲测腻诲丑补谤补蝉 (celestial beings). The work is said to have been an adaptation of Gu峁嚹遽笉hya鈥檚 B峁沨atkath腻 consisting of 100,000 verses, which in turn is part of a larger work containing 700,000 verses.

Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!).
