Mahā Sarā untranslated

Mahā Sarā. The books contain a list of seven great lakes, situated in the Himālaya. They form the sources of the five great rivers and dry up only when four suns appear in the world. These seven lakes are Anotatta, Sīhapapāta, Rathakāra, Kaṇṇamuṇḍā, Kuṇāla, Chaddanta and Mandākinī (AN.iv.101; also at Ja.v.415; Snp­a.407; DN­a.i.164; Ud­a.300; AN­a.ii.759). Sometimes (e.g., Vsm.416) Haṁsapātana is given in place of Mandākinī.
