Source: Wisdom Library: KathāsaritsāgaraHarabala (हरबल) is the name of a friend of Arthalobha, according to the Kathāsaritsāgara, chapter 43. The story of Harabala and Arthalobha was narrated by Rājyadhara in order to demonstrate that “a fair woman, like Fortune, of her own accord chooses a man of high courage”, as well as that “wives and wealth leave the mean-spirited man and of their own accord come to the high-spirited man from every quarter”.
The Kathāsaritsāgara (‘ocean of streams of story’), mentioning Harabala, is a famous Sanskrit epic story revolving around prince Naravāhanadatta and his quest to become the emperor of the vidyādharas (celestial beings). The work is said to have been an adaptation of Guṇāḍhya’s Bṛhatkathā consisting of 100,000 verses, which in turn is part of a larger work containing 700,000 verses.
