The Country of Sindugora新頭故羅國
1No one is drunk
又從此吒國西行一月。至新頭故羅國。衣著風俗。節氣寒暖。與北天相似。言音稍別。此國極足駱駝。國人取乳酪喫也。王及百姓等。大敬三寶足寺足僧。即造順正理論。眾賢論師。是此國人也。此國大小乘俱行。見今大𥦽侵半國損也。即從此國乃至五天。不多飲酒。遍歷五天。不見有醉人相打之者。縱有飲者。得色得力而已。不見有歌舞作劇飲宴之者。
Then from this country of Sata I went west for a month and reached the country of Sindugora (新頭故羅國). The dress, the customs and the cold and warmth of the seasons are like North India, but the speech is a little different. This country has camels in great plenty, and the people of the country take milk and curds from them and eat.
The king and the people revere the Three Jewels greatly, and there are many monasteries and many monks. The treatise master Sanghabhadra (眾賢), who made the Shun zhengli lun (順正理論), was a man of this country. In this country both the Great Vehicle and the Lesser Vehicle are practised.
Now it has been invaded by the Arabs, and half the country is laid waste.
From this country on, as far as the five Indias, they do not drink much wine. Though I went through all five Indias, I never saw a drunken man striking another. Even those who drink get colour and strength from it, no more. I saw no one singing or dancing or making plays or holding drinking feasts.
