A Little... Jain religion is famous for its principles of non violence, non accumulation and subjectiveness.
Soul has no beginning. The relationship between soul and Karma has also no beginning. Soul can get liberation from Karma. All these matters are very nicely narrated in the Jainism.
In Jain religion because of ignorance there is one misbelief amongst Jain multitude that Shri Mahaveer Swami is the founder of Jain religion.
of
There are twenty three tirthankars who became 'Arihant' and achieved Salvation before God Mahāveer.
of
Jainism displays unique calculation of time.
One circular time cycle consists of twenty kotākoti (one crore x one crore) sāgaropam i.e ten kotākoti sāgaropam of Avasarpiņi and ten Kotākoti sāgaropam of Utsarpiņi.
Avasarpiņi=Descending Time Cycle Utsarpiņi=Ascending Time Cycle
In this avasarpiņi Respected God Ādināth was the first and foremost Tirthankar. And afterwards other twenty three tirthankars came into existence.
Out of these twenty four tirthankars 16" God; God Shāntināth, 17th God; God Kunthunāth and 18" God; God Arnāth were the soverigns in the same birth..
The Gujarati edition of The Characters of 24 Tirthankar was written on the basis of wellknown book "Trishashthi Shalākā Mahāpurush Charita'. In the recent culture
of convent, it was necessary to translate the characters of twenty four tirthankar in

Revival moments... of the First Tirthankar Shri Rushabhdev Swāmi's Soul... Comprehension of Trishashthi Shalākā Purush Charitra created by Kalikāl Sarwagna Pujya Āchāryabhagwant Shrimad Vijay Hemchandrasurishwarji Mahārājā...
BIRTH -1
On the earth in Jambudweep there was a famous beautiful city named 'Kshitipratishthit'.
All citizens were happy and satisfied in the kingdom of honourable King Prasannachandra.
Within the same city, there was a famous Sārthvāh called 'Dhan'. He possessed infinite assets. Because of his generosity, he obtained esteem position all over the world.
For business purpose Dhan sārthvāh frequently used to arrange domestic as well as foreign caravan. Dhan was taking up responsibly of the whole caravan and hence, many people used to join him.
Once, Dhan intended to go towards "Vasantpur' for business.
Vasantpur was far away from Kshitipratishthitpur... many jungles; mountains and rivers were to be crossed on the way.

It was impossible to speculate time schedule.
The frosty winter, sizzling summer, torrential rain... many milestone were to be achieved...
Dhan sārthvāh declared in the city that who ever is interested to go towards Vasantpur can join the caravan. Everyone will be provided with full protection. Along with clothing, food, water etc. all will be protected against the wild animals, dacoits and other dangers.
From years together many people were willing to go towards Vasantpur... Listening to Dhan sārthvāh's announcement large group of people enthusiastically joined him.
Outside the city, there was a park where composed (Shāntmurti) Āchārya Bhagwant Dharmghoshsurishwarji Mahārājā was present along with his large group of Munis.
On leaving the city lucky Dhan got glimpse of the Āchāryabhagwant.
Mahātmā: “lucky! We also want to join caravan.”
Dhan: “Bhagwant! I am grateful. Kindly join us. We will be obliged to have your company."
Dhan: “Oh... Attendants! Come here! Take special care of these mahātmās. Arrange daily appropriate food, water etc. for them”
Mahātmā: “Oh... Fortunate! According to our conduct we don't consume the food specially made for us and we would consume whatever food is prepared for you. Sachit water (Raw Water) of

well, pond etc. is also unusable for us”
Achāryabhagwant was explaining Dhan the innocent conduct of the Bhiksha (Gochāri). In the meanwhile one vendor came up and gifted basket full of fresh mangos to Dhan sārthvāh.
Dhan: "God! Kindly accept these mangoes; these fruits are for us only”
Mahātmā: "Merchant! Touching these sachit fruits (Raw Fruits) is prohibited for us.
Dhan: “God! Your conducts are too challenging... Kindly join

the Caravan Thousands of people have joined it. Give me opportunity of serving you with innocent food, water and other appropriate things."
Caravan left from Kshitipratishthitpur. The area where that caravan was taking rest along with hundreds of elephants, horses, camels, ox, mules etc. and large group of people it was looking like a village...
As and on..... Days and months passed. The monsoon commenced. All roads were blocked due to torrential rainfall.
Caravan was stuck in a big forest. To get protection against the rain everyone constructed small huts of bamboo and started living in it.
Dhan's friend Manibhadra has also constructed a beautiful hut
and requested Acharyabhagwant to stay in it.
Mahātmā accepted innocent place for living.
Monsoon season was too long.... In the forest it was also difficult to obtain grain. The hungry people started eating fruits,
roots etc.
Due to such terrible situation of caravan Dhan sarthvāh was
nervous.
"Oh... What a terrible situation of my companions!" Suddenly he evoked Dharmghoshsurishwarji Mahārājā and other mahātmās.

“Oh! I made a big blunder... I have not looked after these mahātmās from the day they joined the caravan! In this poor time others are eating fruits and roots. Whereas these mahātmās don't even touch these things. Instantaneously I am going to see them..."
He immediately went to mahātmā's place and was astonished by looking at the atmosphere over there!
Some mahātmās were meditating, some were busy in studying (Swādhyāy)! Some were imparting knowledge to others (Vāchnā). All were very cheerful...
Dhan sārthvāh bowed to Āchāryabhagwant. Āchārya Mahārāj very politely said 'Dharmlābh'...
Dhan: “God! Kindly excuse me! No one will be as lethargic and ungrateful as me! From the very first day of caravan I had neither bowed nor visited you to ask for your wellbeing.
I forgot about your very presence in the caravan... in this difficult time I didn't look after for arranging innocent food and water for you. Kindly pardon me for my faults.”
Mahātmā: “Fortunate man! We don't have any difficulty in your caravan. You had protected us against all problems arising on the way. Your companions also provide us proper food and water. You don't worry about it”
“God! You are great and full of good qualities! Whereas I am mean. I am ashamed of my behavior. Kindly send mahātmās to my place and give me opportunity of providing food.”

Because of forceful prayer of Dhan, Acharyabhagwant sent two mahātmās with him for Gochari.
Dhan sarthvāh came to own place with mahātmās. Merchant saw a pot full of ghee in his room.
Glad Dhan sarthvah had offered ghee to Mahātmā.
From bottom of his heart very respectfully Dhan sarthvāh had donated the best what is regarded as 'Supātradān'. Because of the power of this supātradan, he obtained 'Samyak Darshan' which is as precious and exclusive as 'Chintamaniratna' (Precious Stone).

Later Dhan was regularly listening to Mahātmā's spiritual speech and was progressing step-by-step. Finally, caravan reached to Vasantpur...
Dharmghoshsuri Mahārājā also went to other place.
Dhan sārthvāh also came back to Kshitipratishthitpur.
Developing 'Samyak Darshan' in his heart... he attained peaceful death (Samādhi Mrutyu).

Deity Lalitāng had very beautiful wife named Swayamprabhā! Lalitāng was very much infatuated towards Swayamprabhā; he was not able to live without Swayamprabhā even for a moment. After some time Swayamprabhā died because of completion of her
age.
On separation from his sweetheart frustrated Lalitāng was crying in her remembrance as “Oh... Darling! Oh... Darling!” All comforts of heaven became painful to him.
The previous birth's friend Swayambuddha who had also pursued initiation and reached peaceful death, became deity at equal level to 'Ishānendra'. His name was Dradhadharm. He recognized Lalitāng and gave condolence to him.
“Friend! Be calm! Why are you so dejected on separation of a woman? You will get more beautiful woman than Swayamprabhā.”
Lalitāng: “Friend... what ever it may be...! I love only Swayamprabhā, if you want my welfare then arrange for my reunion with her.”
“Lalitāng! You think about the present condition of your woman..."

In purvavideh of Dhātkikhand there is one couple named Nāgil and Nāgshree. After six daughters she has born as seventh daughter to them.
Parents were gloomy as they were suffering from severe poverty. The recurring birth of daughters added to their problem. They have not even decided any name for her.
The girl was popular as Nirnāmikā (nameless). Suffering from many pains from childhood, at the beginning of young age frustrated Nirnāmikā went on a mountain to commit suicide. Fortunately, she suddenly got glimpse of Kevalgyāni Yugandhar Muni! She bowed seeing Mahātmā. Mahātmā said Dharmlābh to her.
Nirnāmikā: “God! I am most unlucky woman on this earth; I had neither got love from my parents nor received respect from relatives. Wherever I go problems follow me. I am fade up of this life. I want to do suicide.”
Mahātmā: “Oh... lady! What pain do you have? In this world there are many men who don't have place to live, clothes to wear, food to eat and water to drink...” What to talk about human beings (Manushyagati)? How much pain sauls are bearing in hell (Narakgati) and in Tiryanch Gati ? (Tiryanch gati includes all types of birds, fly and animals)
Mahātmā explained heart-blowing pains of the four states (gati) to Nirnāmikā.
Together with explanation of pains in four state, Mahātmā also

clarifiesd comforts and internal happiness of salvation. He also told how Shravak (followers of Jainism) and Sadhu (saint) dharm helps in achieving this happiness.
Listening to this Nirnāmikā accepted shravak dharm and consequently following the same. Now she is taking up Anashan (fasting till death).
Dradhadharm: "Friend! You immediately reach to Niranamikā! Induce her towards you. After death she will certainly become your wife in this heaven."
Lalitang became happy and went to Nirnamika's place. He induced her and after death she became Swayamprabhā in Ishhān heaven.
He enjoyed comforts and happiness with Swayamprabha for long time. After demise the soul of Dhan Sarthvah in his sixth birth born as Vajrajanghkumar, the son of brave king Suvarnajangh and lucky queen Laxmirāni in town called' Lohargal' in Eastern videh.
Swayamprabha on completion of her life became beautiful princess named Shrimati. She was daughter of Sovereign King Vajrasen in 'Pundarikgini' of Eastern videh.
At the beginning of young age princess Srimati met a Mahātmā. She recalled her previous births on vision of that mahātmā. (She attained Jati Smaran Gyan). She watched her previous birth. She became highly infatuated towards her previous birth's husband Lalitang. She was thinking about the present condition of Lalitang.
To search Lalitang, Shrimati drawed exactly identical pictures showing her previous births on a large sheet. She has covered

stories describing Nirnāmikā, meeting with Yugandhar muni, her Anashan, love of Lalitang and Swayamprabhā.
She sent this picture to many kings and princes. Vajrajangh got that picture. He collapsed looking at the picture and recalled his previous birth. Seeing the picture of his previous birth's beloved, he became intense in love. Shrimati was very happy on receiving this news. Lovers met each other... Parents of both happily celebrated marriage ceremony.
Both enjoyed family comfort as anticipated. On one night enemy king created poisonous gas, which killed both of them. They both were in the conception of an initiation when they died. After that they took birth in Uttar Kuru as 'Yuglik'.
Rushabhdev's soul took birth as 'Yuglik' in seventh birth. After enjoying comforts in that birth he became deity in first heaven i.e. 'Saudharm Heaven'.
The soul of Swayamprabha also became deity in same heaven. Swayamprabha, Nirnāmikā, again Swayamprabhā, Shrimati, Yuglik and deity in first heaven like wise, this soul along with soul of God Rushabhdev participated in all comforts and pains.
After completion of life in heaven in ninth birth the soul of God Rushabh dev took birth as son of the talented royal doctor (rājvaidya) in Kshitipratishthitpur at Videhkshetra. His name was 'Jivānand'.
In same town, there was 'Mahidhar' the prince of King Ishanchandra, 'Subuddhi' son of Sunasir Mantri (Minister), 'Purnabhadra' son of Sagardutta Sārthvāh, 'Guņākar' son of Dhan

Shreshthi. All were of same age group. The bond between them was excellent. Son of Ishvarduttsheth named 'Keshav' also joined these five. Keshav was the soul of Swayamprabha. The group of these six was famous in the town. All six used to join any virtuous action dynamically.
One day all were sitting in house of Jivanand. At that time, renunciatory lean body Mahātmā came there. The talented Jivanand identified his disease of worms. All six decided to do treatment of the Mahātmā. For the purpose of treatment 'Goshirsh Chandan', 'Lakshyapak oil', 'Ratna Kambal' etc. valuable medicines were purchased. For the purpose of treatment one religious merchant had sponsored one Ratna Kambal valued onelakh twenty five thousand (1,25,000) gold coins. Six friends came with medicine to Gunākar muni. They covered body of muni with Ratna Kambal. With the effect of Goshirsh Chandan and Lakshyapak oil all the worms came out from muni's body. And collected the same on ratna kambal. They had already kept cow's dead body ready over there; all worms were put on that. Muni bhagwant was free from the disease. They sold balance medicines and the proceeds were used to build one beautiful and grand Jain temple decorated with golden flag.
In later life all the six became renunciatory and accepted an initiation, after doing good worship all six died. They became Sāmānik deities of 'Achyutendra Mahārājā' in twelfth heaven. In Achyut heaven, this was God's tenth birth with age of twentytwosāgropam (measure for time).
In 'Pundarikgini' town at Pushkalavati continent of Easternvideh there was one brave king 'Vajrasen' and his good character queen 'Dharini'. The soul of God had become fetus to this queen Dharini with fourteen great dreams.

Yes! These fourteen dreams were not indicating Tirthankar's birth but were indicating six continent's leader Sovereign's birth. His name was 'Vajranābh'. Previous birth's five friends became prince Bahu, Subāhu, Pith, Mahāpith and Suyash.
All six princes had very deep bond of love for each other.
King of Pundarikgini 'Vajrasen' became 'Tirthankar' in same birth in Eastern videhkshetra and was the founder of sacrament.
Vajrasen Mahārājā handed over kingdom to Vajranābh and accepted an initiation, attained Kevalgyān and established
sacrament.
Vajranabh got victory over six continents and became Sovereign. He had enjoyed kingdom of six continents for long time. Once his father Vajrasen Swami came to town. He went to listen to God. Vajranabh and five princes were very much influenced by the speech. All six accepted an initiation. Muni Vajranabh done best of worship and acquired many powers. He constituted 'Tirthankar Namkarma' by doing 'Vishasthānak' penance. After fourteen lacs purva of untainted saint age he had peaceful death. From there the soul got birth in Anuttar plane (heaven) named 'Sarvarthsiddha' as deity having life of thirty-three sāgropam age.
In Twelfth birth God's soul reached Annutar plane named 'Sarvārthsiddha'. Now there was certainly only one birth! The Soul of Dhan Sarthvah was at the peack of development cycle. For achievement of goal only one birth was required. Let's go on interesting ride of last birth...

LAST BIRTH: GOD RUSHABHDEV
At the southern Bharatkshetra of Jambudweep...
When third Ārā (fraction) of avasarpini was going on... when eighty four purva three years and eight and half month of third ārā were still remaining...
There was one brilliant kulkar (head of the lineage) named Nābhi. He was ascendant of Vimalvahan kulkar. Her fortunate wife's name was Marudeva. After completing the life in "Sarvarthsiddha" heaven, on fourteenth day of dark half of Ashadh (Jyeshtha) month, God became fetus to her with fourteen glorious and lusty dreams. These fourteen dreams were Ox (Vrushabh), Elephant (Hathi), Lion (Kesari Sinh), Goddess (Shree Devi), Garland of flowers (Pushpamālā), Moon (Chandra), Sun (Surya), Flag (Dhvaj), Water pot (Kalash), River (Padma Sarovar), Ocean (Kshir Samudra), Celestial airplane (Dev Viman), Heap of jewels (Ratnarashi) and Bright fire (Nirdhum Agni). The Marudevāmātā was very glad and she immediately narrated the dreams to her husband Nabhi kulkar...
On listening to this Nabhi replied, "Oh... fluky lady! These dreams indicate that you will give birth to great and marvellous son." At the same time due to God's power the seat of Saudharmendra Mahārājā tremored.

The Saudharmendra Mahārājā hunched that the first tirthankar had come to the womb. He went seven-eight steps towards that direction. He prayed God by saying 'Namutthunam Stotra'.
After prayer Indra Mahārājā himself came to Nabhi kulkar and described the results of the dreams! Marudevamātā was sitting nearby only. The Indra Mahārājā introduced himself and said, "Oh... fluky lady! Respectable to globe, inclined to do welfare of whole planet's lives... such a great soul had come to your embryo.
Oh... Mother of the whole world! You had seen Ox in the first dream. As mighty ox is able to pull out chariot from the mud your son will pull out religion like chariot from fascination, which is like mud.
The view of Elephant in second dream indicates he will be the greatest in all greats and will be most powerful.
In the third dream you had seen Lion (Kesari Sinh), which suggests that he will be patient, heroic, courageous and mighty.
Due to vision of Goddess in fourth dream he will get empire of three Lok (Urdhvalok, Adholok, and Tirchhālok)
The fifth dream was of Garland. This shows that the whole world will obey your son.
The sixth dream of Full Moon indicates that he will be lovely, handsome and innocent.

In thirteenth dream you have seen Heap of Jewels. This shows that your son will excel like jewels.
Because of vision of Bright Fire in fourteenth dream your son will get the power to snatch away brightness of brilliants.
Vision of all the fourteen dreams indicates that your son will be the Lord of Fourteen Rājlok.
In this way Indra Mahārājā has described the result of all fourteen dreams. Nābhi Kulkar and Marudevāmātā both became very excited. After the pregnancy of nine months, eight and half days, in Uttarashādha constellation, on eighth day of dark half of

Birth of God spread glee everywhere. Everyone including live in hell and moss felt relief for a while.
As per convention 56 Dikkumāris celebrated God's birth ceremony. Saudharmendra Mahārājā called up all deities at Meru Mountain via Haringamaishi deity for celebrating birth ceremony.
After marvellous celebration all went back to their places. Nabhi Kulkar also invited family and friends for celebration. As Marudevāmātā had seen Ox in the first dream and hence, God was baptized as 'Rushabh' and twin baby was baptized as 'Sumangala' Baby Rushabh was nurturing slowly and gradually with the help of Indra Mahārājā's thumb nectar and five wardens.
When God reached one year of age Indra Mahārājā came to God for establishing lineage. He gifted sugarcane to baby Rushabh. God cheerfully accepted the gift and hence, lineage was named 'Ikshwaku'
In Yuglik tradition brother marries his twin sister.
God's wedding was fixed with Sumangalā. However, on one day a Yuglik were playing in the garden and suddenly a big fruit from Palmyra tree fell down on Yuglikboy and he expired on the spot. Unfortunately, this was happened for the first time. When that girl became 54 days old her parents also passed away. Other people

handed over the girl to Nabhi Kulkar. Nabhi Kulkar decided to arrange her marriage with Rushabh.
They named that girl 'Sunanda' When Rushabh reached puberty he wedded to Sunanda and Sumangalā.
As Saudharmendra Mahārājā had established God's lineage he felt his duty to attend God's wedding ceremony. He was present with his family in the God's wedding ceremony. They celebrated incredibly.
Time is unstoppable. Sumangala gave birth to twin named Bharat and Brahmi whereas Sunanda gave birth to brilliant twin Bahubali and Sundari. Successively Sumangalā gave birth to 49 twin baby boys.
God became father of 100 boys and two girls... Futuristic First Tirthankar married unenthusiastically. Moreover, he also has to establish his kingdom.
Constitution and kingdom are necessary to punish corrupt and to protect innocent. Yugliks were very straight forward, gentle and patient and hence, they get rebirth in heaven. However, gradually anger, proud, illusion, parsimony etc. were increasing in Yugliks also. To avoid all these, kingdom was essential. Earlier kings used to follow penance of affirmation, negation and aversion. People began transgressing these penances and Yugliks were complaining.

Rushabh: "Gentlemen! I do agree to punish corrupt. There should be the kingdom."
Public: "What do you mean by 'King'?"
Rushabh: "The person who is equipped with four types of army (horse, elephant, chariot, infantry) and coroneted is called 'King""
Public: "Yaah!!! We also want such king!"
God suggested them to request Nabhi Kulkar for king. Nabhi Kulkar replied, "Oh...Rushabh will be your King"
The excited Yugliks went to arrange water for coronation. Saudharmendra Mahārājā hunched this with his knowledge. All deities came with sophisticated water, gaudy costumes, and wonderful ornaments to perform their duty of coronation.
They beautifully crowned God and bestowed with studded throne. They began prayer. Meanwhile Yugliks came with bowl (made up from leaf) filled with water for coronation. They were astonished looking at the handsome Rushabh. They felt it would be unfair to give ceremonial bath to well dressed God. Hence, they decanted water on God's feet only.
The courtesy of Yugliks cheered Saudharmendra Mahārājā and he gifted developed town having area of twelve by nine yojan (1 Yojan=3200 Miles), and palace like 'Alkapuri' (house of

King Rushabh started establishing township. He divided public in four ancestral groups named Ugra, Bhog, Rajanya and Kshatriya. He picked out Minister, Commander, and Constable for security. He taught Bharat seventy two arts of male and Bahubali was imparted with various characteristics. He taught Brahmi eighteen languages. He also taught Sundari Mathematics etc. Due to deteriorating generation Kalpavriksh got vanished and King Rushabh taught cooking to people.
Successively he divided public in five classes of Potter, Painter, Carpenter, Weaver and Barber. Each class was again subdivided into twenty subclasses. Hence, there were total hundred subclasses. In the township of King Rushabh everyone were living happily.

Day before initiation God vowed for Chhattha penance (two days fasts) God was mum from the day of initiation. Everyday God was wandering for innocent bhikshā. The area surrounded to him was getting holistic.
The people were unaware about the rules of innocent bhikshā. Hence, when God comes they used to offer him ornaments, pearls, jewels, beautiful ladies, sachit fruits (raw fruits) etc. But, God was progressing silently.
The masters who had pursued initiation along with God were also unaware about rules of innocent bhikshā. They thought, “God neither eats anything nor tells us anything. How will we bear this hunger?” They started living in huts near Ganges shore. They used to satisfy their hunger with fruits and roots. They became matted hair saint and were meditating God.
Nami and Vinami, sons of Kutchh and Mahākutchh were out of town when God divided states before initiation. They came back to Vinitā and demanded their rights in states. Bharat Mahārājā assigned some states to them but, they told “We will take state from God only.” They came to God and demanded state.
God didn't give any answer as he has already disconnected all the relations with world. Both prayed God round the clock.
Once Nāgraj Dharņendra saw poignant prayer of these two and pleasantly gifted Gauri, Pragnapti etc 48,000 vidyas (knowledge) to

them. He felicitated Nami with fifty established towns in southern Vaitādhya Mountain and Vinami with sixty established towns in northern Vaitādhya Mountain.
They set up capitals at Rathanupur Chakravāl town and Gaganvallabh town respectively.
More than 13 months were passed. God came to Hastināpur city. God had done 400 waterless fasts. King Somprabh, son of Bāhubali was the emperor of that town. The day before God reached Hastināpur King Somprabh dreamed that he got victory over the enemy with the help of Shreyānskumār. The sheriff of that town dreamed that thousands of sun-rays fell down and Shreyānskumār again joined them. Whereas Shreyānskumār dreamed that he shines out dull Golden Mountain with enthronement of milk. In the morning all three met and discussed about the dreams. No one was able to make out result of the dream but, they were definite that Shreyānskumār was going to have some great benefit.
In the noon Shreyānskumār came back to his palace. God reached to Hastināpur for bhikshā. The people were running behind God telling, “God neither speaks nor accepts anything” Someone was offering ornaments whereas someone was offering lift on chariot.
Shreyānskumār heard this noise. He came out of the palace and saw God. He cheerfully prayed God after three rotation (pradakshinā) He was staring at God. He thought, “I have seen this

costume before" He recalled his previous births. He also recalled process of innocent bhiksha. He started searching for innocent substance which he can offer as bhiksha to God. Meanwhile someone has gifted Shreyanskumar with golden pots full of sugarcane juice. Instantaneously, Shreyanskumar requested God...
"Oh... God! Kindly accept this suitable sugarcane juice" God accepted the same in his palmate like pan. Excited Shreyānskumār happily poured juice in that. In this way God broke his fasts. Shreyanskumar started convention of 'Supatradān' in this avasarpiņi.
The deities rejoiced in the sky on this occasion with five 'Divya' (which includes shower of clothes, perfumes, flowers, 12.5 crores gold coins and announcement of 'Aho Danam... Aho Danam') On third day of bright half of Vaishakh month God accepted bhiksha for the first time and it became inexhaustible donation. Hence, we celebrate this day as 'Akshay Trutiya'
God didn't get any bhiksha for thirteen months. This was directly linked with the incidence, which occurred in one of the births, before attaining 'Samkit'. Bullocks were eating grains and hence, farmer was beating them. God saw this and became very disgruntled. Merciful God advised farmer to tie net on bullock's mouth instead of beating. In this way they won't eat grains. God thought bullocks would be saved from hitting. However, God forgot to tell him to remove net after completion of work. Due to this mistake bullock

What a consequence of Karma! Till thirteen months God didn't get innocent bhikshā. This was the flashback. Now we come back to the Shreyānskumār...
The people heard divine drums and gathered over there. They asked Shreyānskumār, “How did you come to know about the process of innocent bhikshā?”
Shreyānskumār: "Looking at the God I recalled my previous

birth. My soul is related to God from last eight births. In last birth we both were in Anuttar plane (heaven) named 'Sarvarthsiddh'. In third last birth God was Vajranabh Sovereign. His father Vajrasen was Tirthankar and I was charioteer (Sarthi) of the Sovereign. I also pursued initiation along with God and hence, I know about the process of innocent bhiksha."
Desire less God went somewhere else. Shreyanskumār made sculpture of precious gems where God accepted first bhiksha so that no one can transgress that place. God came towards Takshasheelā city. He was meditating in garden outside the town. In the evening gardener informed God's arrival to King Bahubali. On hearing this good news King Bahubali lavishly gifted gardener.

He thought, "On tomorrow morning I will go with procession to bow God and will hear his lecture." The whole night he was thinking about God. Next day when he came with procession God already went somewhere else.
Grief Bahubali cursed his laziness. He established 'Dharmchakra' (wheel) of precious stones where God was seating so that no one can transgress that place. After thousand years of initiation God came to Purimatal town. He was in the garden named 'Shakatānan'
The eighth day of dark half of Phalgun (Magh) month-this was the golden day on which God had Kevalyagyan (fifth type of knowledge)
Saudharmendra Mahārājā and other deities celebrated God's Kevalgnan. The deities constructed place of sermons (Samavasaran). Indra Mahārājā prayed God. Gardener named Yamak immediately went to King Bharat and gave this good news. As soon as he congratulated King Bharat Shamak, who was army ambassador came over there.
He congratulated King and reported that, "Oh... King! You will be the champ... Definitely you will be the Sovereign. Chakraratna has been developed in your armoury. Kindly come to worship it..."
Two-two good news at a time cheered King. He was confused, "Oh... What should I do first? Celebrate father's Kevalgnan or

worship Chakraratna?” After thinking for a while he came to his grandmother Marudevāmātā. Rushabh was very dear one to her. After God's initiation he cried a lot and hence, thick layer was formed on her eyes. She has lost her vision. King told her, “Oh Mother... Come... watch your son's pomp... People of whole universe (three lok) are busy in worshipping your son... You daily cry for missing him. But, now come and see your son's splendor with your insight.”
Riding on elephant both went towards the place of sermons. She was thrilled on hearing the sweet voice of divine drums. Cheerful Marudevāmātā got emotional. Due to tears the layer, which was formed, got washed out.
She saw God and place of sermons. She was very attentive and was completely engrossed. Instantly she attained Kevalgnān by destroying 'Ghātikarma'. She got expired on the spot.
King Bharat was surprised to see that amazing scene. He entered into the place of sermon. He prayed God and settled down. God started his lecture.
His subject was attainment of'Samyak Darshanpad' He lessoned that to float out from the rotational cycle of world (sansār) there is one and only one way that is 'Sarva Virti' (initiation).
Many people attained 'Samyak Darshan' after hearing to his lecture. Thousands of people pursued initiation. King Bharat's son

Rushabhsen (Pundarikswāmi) etc. 500 guys and Brāhmi etc. girls also pursued initiation.
God established 'Chaturvidh Sangh' (Four Fold Society which includes Saint, Nun, Male and Female). This was the beginning of God's administration. He entitled rank of'Ganadhar' to Rushabhsen and other 84 masters. He entitled Bharat etc. with the rank of 'Shrāvak' and Sundari etc. with the rank of 'Shrāvikā'
'Gomukh Yaksha' was Adhishthāyak Dev and 'Chakreshwari Devi' was the Adhisthāyikā Devi in God's administration.
God Rushabhdev was wandering and blessing every live of the universe. King Bharat returned to his armoury at Vinitā and worshipped his chakraratna. He started conquering six continents.
Sundari was the beloved of King Bharat. However, she strongly desired to take initiation like sister Brāhmi. She was living forcefully in the world as King Bharat was not allowing her to pursue initiation. Everyday she was doing Āyambil. Since 60,000 years she was doing this. Because of which healthy Sundari became slender. Most beautiful young lady of the world became dull.
Victor King Bharat returned to Vinitā after 60,000 years. He became disgruntled by looking at the Sundari. He yelled, "Hey! Servants...! Colleagues...! You did not take care of Sundari. Has she caught any dangerous disease? Why she became so weak?”

“King! After you left from the very next day she started Āyambils. She has decided to do this until you permit her for initiation.” Listening to this King Bharat cursed his fascination (Moha). He apologized and permitted Sundari for initiation.
Sundari pursued initiation and joined group of nuns along with her elder sister Brāhmi. King Bharat conquered six continents but his ninety nine brothers including Bāhubali had not given up their lordship. Hence, he ordered his ninety eight brothers except Bāhubali to take up their responsibilities under his lordship.
All ninety eight brothers met after receiving this notice. "We all are satisfied with our states which are given to us by God. We respect elder brother like father. Should we accept this unfair demand or we should fight?" Finally, they decided to go to father, who has assigned us rights in state.
All ninety eight brothers came and said, “God! We are satisfied with the states assigned to us. But, elder brother Bharat wants his lordship. Should we accept this unfair demand or should we give fight? God, tell us what should we do?”
God: “Oh... Meritorious... We should fight with our internal enemies i.e. Rāg, Dwesh, Moha and Kashāy. Under lordship of these four our soul rambles in world from countless years. Rāg (attachment) is like manacles which bind us and impede our way to

salvation. Dwesh (envy) is like highway to hell. Moha (fascination) drowns us in Sansar Sagar (Worldly Ocean). Kashay swallows own protectors. For courteous people it is advisable to abandon all these four enemies and pick up the wealthy way of initiation. Kingdom increases thirst of wealth."
God's lecture awaked their souls. Actually they came to have solution of this birth but God gave solution for births together. All ninety eight brothers pursued initiation. When King Bharat got this news he praised their courage and cursed himself. The empire of ninety nine brothers automatically came to King Bharat.
But, still mighty Bahubali was obstacle in the way to title of Sovereign. How can King Bharat become Sovereign till Bahubali is ruling over Bahildesh? He was acquainted with the strength of Bahubali. Hence, he sent proficient envoy named Suweg to convey message to Bahubali.
The message was read in parliament of Takshasheelā city. Bahubali was thinking over that. However, civilians and worriers were very angry on receiving this message. They were of the opinion that, "Only God Rushabh can rule us. We will not accept any other's lordship." The civilians of Bahildesh were very satisfied and happy with the Bahubali. They were ready to sacrifice even their lives for him. This incidence astonished envoy Suweg also.

Bahubali felicitated Suweg. However, ministers of Bahildesh sent rejection letter to King Bharat. The result was definite. Both crews started preparation for war. King Bharat went towards Takshasheela along with his military. Bahubali was also geared up to welcome him. The first battle of this avasarpini began. Both were equally strong and it was impossible to speculate who will be the winner.
The battle was continued for twelve-twelve years. Masses of people died during the war. Not only public but Saudharmendra etc. deities were also staggered. To stop this destruction Saudharmendra Mahārājā himself came at battlefield and tried to convince both. One has desire for title of Sovereign whereas other was struggling to protest against injustice. Both were tenacious.
Finally, Indra Mahārājā suggested, "Oh...Greats...As you have mutual enmity you go for duel. So that innocent people will not lose their lives." Both accepted suggestion of Indra Mahārājā. Indra Mahārājā shown five types of combats-battle of sight (Drashti Yuddha), debate, wrestling, boxing and battle of stick (Dand Yuddha)
Both military calm downed. Mighty commanders put downed their weapons and were eager to see heroism of their lords. In the sky deities were also watching their combat.

First battle of sight was initiated. For long time both remained steady and their eyes were firm. At last, eyes of King Bharat moved.
All applauded Bahubali's victory. After that in all the four combats Bahubali was successful in trouncing King Bharat's vanity.
Military of Bahubali was thrilled with the victory of his lord. This was unbelievable for Sovereign's military. King Bharat struggled for sixty thousand years and triumphed lordship of six continents. He was annoyed as he was going to lose his lordship.
This defeat was intolerable for him. He disregarded presence of Indra Mahārājā and released his chakraratna on Bahubali. Both military and Indra etc. deities were dazed. That chakra (wheel) was very dangerous and was rapidly coming closer to the Bahubali.
Bahubali was also furious as King Bharat broken the conditions laid by Saudharmendra Mahārājā.
But... what's this? Startling...chakraratna rotated thrice around Bahubali and returned to King Bharat. The chakraratna does not work on the person of same family line. He was younger brother of King Bharat and hence, chakraratna could not harm him.
Passionate King Bharat forgot even this small thing. King Bharat was abashed by his unjust did. Now, it was impossible to control Bahubali. He put up his fist to punch King Bharat. All were

horrified by thinking what will happen? Thousands of people were steadily observing this scene. However, when he came closer to King Bharat his mind got agitated.
"Oh... who am I? The son of God Rushabhdev; the father, who abandoned all luxuries. My younger ninety eight brothers had also abandoned this world in few seconds and damned stupid I am here to kill my father like elder brother. I am so infatuated in luxuries and wishes. I despise myself! I hate this world! It is better to go on my father's path.
Instantaneously, Bahubali did Locha by the fist. And vowed for 'Sarva Virti' Indra etc. deities and other people were amazed. All were looking at the Bahubali's unique valour. The deities showered flowers on Bahubali.
King Bharat saluted his younger brother for his unique pith. Very softly he said, "Brother! You are the real son of God Rushabhdev. You replicated father's way. How wicked I am! Knowingly I am infatuated in all the luxuries."
King Bharat apologized for his did. King Bharat coroneted Bahubali's son, Chandrayashā, at Takshasheela. King Bharat returned to Vinita and was coroneted by title of Sovereign.
Bahubali pursued initiation in the battlefield only and was meditating. He was desperate to meet his father God Rushabhdev

but, powerful Bahubali was surrounded by proud even after initiation. He thought, "Oh... If right now I will go to meet God I have to bow my younger ninety eight brothers who had pursued initiation before me. I will meet God only after having Kevalgyan."
Time passes very fast. Twelve months passed. Bahubali did nonstop fasts. He was uninterruptedly meditating. He endured each and every type of vexations and exertions. But, still he has not attained Kevalgyān.
Benevolent God was aware of Bahubali's thoughts. He immediately sent Brahmi and Sundari to lesson Bahubali.
Obeying God, both came to their brother. Bahubali was surrounded by creeper and trees. It was difficult to recognize him. Both rotated him thrice and bowed him. Emotionally they requested, "Veera...! Morā gaj thaki utaro...! Gaj chade Keval na hoy (Brother! Come down from the proud like elephant. Proud person can not attain Kevalgnan) Bahubali was staggered! "Am I riding on elephant?"
"Oh...Obviously it is true! I am riding on proud like elephant. How will I attain Kevalgyan? Now, straight away I am going to bow my younger brothers!"
Bahubali stepped up and instantly attained Kevalgyān.

At the Mahāvidehkshetra, in Vatsa continent, there was one prosperous town named Susimā. Pure, sacred King Vimalvāhan was the lord of that town.
Civilians were prosperous under the ruling of holy king. King was also just, religious and valiant.
One day Acharyabhagwant Arindamsuri Mahārājā came to Susimā.
King Vimalvāhan became renunciatory (Vairagi) on listening to the lectures of Acharyabhagwant. He handed over all the responsibilities to son Kavachahar and pursued initiation from Acharyabhagwant. He excellently worshipped Saint's conduct, endured twenty two vexations, done Vishasthanak penance and constituted Tirthankar Namkarma. At end of the life, he had peaceful death and he reborn as deity in heaven named Anuttar plane. He had life of thirty three sāgaropam.
In next birth the soul of King Vimalvahan came to the womb of pure charactered Vijayādevi; the wife of mighty King Jeetshatru. The King Jeetshatru was ruling over the city Vinita. Vinita is the beautiful town situated at Bharatkshetra of Jambudweep, where uncountable kings ruled including God Rushabhdev, where many kings pursued initiation and reached salvation.

Near Ratnapur city there was one village called Achalgrām. Brilliant Brahmin Dharnijat was residing over there. He had gorgeous wife Yashodhara and two sons Nandibhuti and Shivbhuti. Kapila was their maid servant. The learned Dharnijat was lovesick in Kapila. Kapila delivered a baby boy who was named as Kapil.

Dharnijat taught Ved etc. to both the children, silently Kapil also studied this. Only by listening intelligent Kapil became erudite. He left that place and came to Ratnapur. He was living with scholar Satyaki. In few days only, he became preferable to all the scholars. Scholar Satyaki was highly impressed by Kapil and therefore, he arranged his daughter Satyabhama's marriage with Kapil.
Though Kapil was brilliant and erudite he was son of maid servant. And hence, because of his behaviour and culture Satyabhāmā recognized the truth. She went to the parliament of the King Shrishen and demanded divorce.
King gave her shelter in the palace. Here, prince Indusen wedded to Shrikantā; daughter of Kaushambi city's King Bal. Princess Shrikantā had selected Indusen from among various princes, who were present at the choice marriage. In the choice marriage Shrikantā came with one prostitute named Anantmaņikā. Both the brothers, Indusen and Bindusen became lovesick after looking at the beauty of that prostitute.
Indusen forgot even own beloved Shrikantā... Lovesick brothers started fighting.
King Shrishen tried to convince both the sons but how can lovesick sons understand father's advice? Sensitive King Shrishen couldn't sustain this shock. He did suicide by inhaling poisonous lotus. Grief queens also did the same thing. Moreover, Satyabhāmā,

Hawk replied: "King I am not getting your religious language. I am hungry and it is also sinful to increase any one's hunger. Mutton is my food.”
King: “Oh...you want mutton then I will provide you with the meat, which will be equal to weight of pigeon.”
Hawk convinced with King. King called for scale. At one side he kept pigeon and on other side he started putting meat taken out from his own leg. However, side of pigeon was going down and down. The people were astounded.
At last, King himself set on the other side of scale. And he said to hawk, “Oh... Hawk...Eat my body gleefully. And satisfy your hunger."
Whole royal family gathered over there. Everybody was crying. Suddenly hawk and pigeon both disappeared. In place of them two deities came and were apologizing for their misdeed. They told King Meghrath, “King! In the parliament Ishānendra deity was applauding your compassion. Hence, we came here to test you!”
They showered flowers on King Meghrath and returned back to their places.

Afterwards King Meghrath handed over lordship to his son Meghsen and became busy in his own activity. Once he did three days fast and was mediating. Ishanendra came and saluted him. He said, "Namo Bhagwate Tubhyam" (God! I Bow you!) Instantly Indrāni asked Ishanendra, "Oh...Dear! Nobody is here then to whom you are bowing...?
"I am bowing to King Meghrath who did three days fast and is meditating. He will become Tirthankar in future." Listening to this both Indrānis; Airupā and Surupā came to King Meghrath to test him. They started doing suitable exertions on him. They also tried to seduced him but King Meghrath was stable. At last both Indrānis apologized for their behaviour. Next day Tirthankar God Dhanrath came to the city. King Meghrath along with his brother pursued initiation from him. He did Vishasthānak penance and constituted Tirthankar Namkarma. He accepted Anashan and had peaceful death at Ambertilak Mountain.
The birth of King Meghrath was the best instance of boundless mercy in the heart of God Shantinath. God Shantinath remained cool and calm in each and every situation right from his first birth as King Shrishen to twelfth birth as God Shantinath. Hence, he was most appropriately baptized as 'SHANTINĀTH'. In eleventh birth he became Mahardhik deity at Anuttar plane of Sarvārthsiddha heaven.

At Jambudweep's Aparvideh, in Veetshokā city of Salilāvati continent strong King Bal was ruling. His wife Dhāriņi dreamed lion (Kesari Sinh) when she conceived. She gave birth to a son who was named Mahābal.
Matured prince Mahābal married with Kamalshree etc. 500 princesses.
Mahābal had six friends viz. Amal, Dharan, Puran, Vasu, Vaishravan and Abhichandra. They were great friends. All friends including Mahābal pursued initiation from Vardharm Muni.
All seven decided that, “Everybody will do penance together and nobody will do discrete penance."
Mahābal Muni was desperate to achieve something more than others. Hence, at the time of breaking fast she used to say, “I am not feeling well today. I don't have appetite.” And in this way she used to avoid broking fast. He did penance more than other six friends.
With illusion he did more penance than other six friends. He whole heartedly did Vishasthānak penance and constituted Tirthankar Nāmkarma. However, He did penance with illusion and hence, he constituted karma for life of female i.e. Stree ved life.

beautiful eyes made up of crystal, hair of sapphire, hands-legs; each and every parts of body were exactly matching with the beauty and body of Mallikumāri. That statue was very exact and accurate.
She made golden lotus in the middle and did one hole in that.
The wall was constructed around the hall and six rooms were constructed at four sides of hall. She did such an arrangement that person in any of six rooms can clearly see the statue but persons in one room can't see persons of other rooms.
Every day Mallikumāri was putting one bite of food in the statue from that hole done in golden lotus.
The desperate six kings arrived to Mithila. All were hoping, "Mallikumāri will marry with me." They were ready to fight for her. The citizens of Mithila became tensed by looking at the army of six kings. But, all had faith in Mallikumāri. They were confident that, "Mallikumāri will rescue us from the disaster" Mallikumāri passed message to all six kings to meet her alone. All six were very glad and thought that, "Mallikumāri had called me to meet and hence, she will marry me" By thinking this all six came in palace. Looking at the statue of Mallikumāri all the six kings became completely engrossed.
To unveil the truth Mallikumāri opened the seal of golden lotus. And odor of stale food was spread in the hall.

You could not bear the odor of one or two bites put before few days then what else is contained in this body? This body contains many odorous things like meat, blood, shit etc., you are enthralled towards the wrapper of this skin only. Just recall your previous birth. We all seven pursued initiation together. We had done many types of penances together. We all were together in Vaijyant heaven also."
Listening to this all recalled their previous births. They apologized for their behaviour. They left with the desire that, "We will also pursued initiation when you (Mallikumāri) will become Tirthankar."
All applauded Mallikumāri.

King asked God about previous birth of horse. God said, “Long ago, one businessman Sāgardutt was residing in Padmini city. His religion was Shaiv. He used to listen to Jain religion's lecture with his friend. One day he heard in lecture that, “The soul, who constructs the statue of Jain Tirthankar, surely achieves salvation.” Listening to this, Shaiv Sāgardutt constructed one gold statue of Jain Tirthankar and enthusiastically installed the same.”
Before this Shaiv Sāgardutt had also constructed one Shivālay (temple of Shiv). And Sāgardutt used to go over there for worship. On the eve of Uttarāyan (the day sun transits from south to north) devotees were pulling pots for worshipping Shiv. Due to this many white ants, which were under the pots, were getting crushed. Looking at this Sāgardutt became emotional. Kind Sāgardutt was removing the white ants to save them. At that time devotees teased him and they purposely killed the white aints. Their priest also turned deaf ear to this matter.
Watching this scene Sāgardutt unenthusiastically worshipped Shiv. In the past he had already constituted animal's life and hence, became horse in this birth. However, construction of statue of Jain Tirthankar and hospitality (Jeevdaya) helped him in understanding religion here also. In future he will achieve salvation.”

BIRTH -2-3-4
In second birth both Dhankumār and Dhanvati became deities in the first heaven. Both were great friends. Last birth's love was still alive. After completing life in the heaven, in the third birth soul of Dhankumār came to the womb of queen Vidyutmati. The queen Vidyutmati was the wife of King Soor, ruling over Soortej city at northern Vaitādhya Mountain of Bharatkshetra. He was named Chitragati.
On the other hand soul of Dhanvati came to the womb of queen Shashiprabha. The queen Shashiprabha was the wife of King Anangsingh, ruling over Shivmandir city at southern Vaitādhya of Bharatkshetra. She was named as Ratnavati.
When Ratnavati became matured her parents were worried about her marriage. Whether Ratnavati will get appropriate spouse or not? King Anang was much tensed on this matter... King had called for photographs and bio data of many princes. But he was not contented from those... He was not getting the complete conjunction of mind, beauty and age.
Finally King called an astrologer to ask him about Ratnavati's future.
“Oh... King! Just don't worry. She will get four times better spouse than herself. The person who will snatch away your precious divine sword and on whom deities will shower flower, will be the husband of your daughter.” King Anangsingh became relaxed on listening to this.

King Sugriv was ruling over nearby city Chakrapur. He had two queens named Yashaswati and Bhadrā.
Queen Yashaswati had one son; Sumitra and her co-wife Bhadra had one son Padma.
Prince Sumitra was virtuoso and hence, appropriate for lordship. It was difficult for Bhadra to accept this truth.
For killing Sumitra, the step mother had experimented intense poison on him. King Sugriv had tried a lot to annihilate the poison but he failed. Whole city was grief. At the same time Vidyadhar Chitragati (soul of Dhankumar) was passing by. He known the situation of Prince Sumitra and immediately he came over there to wipe out the poison of Sumitra. With own power compassionate Chitragati made Sumitra fine. They both became profound friends.
Sumitra's sister was married with King of Kaling. Once lovesick Kamal, who was son of King Anangsingh and was brother of Ratnavati, kidnapped her.
On receiving this news Sumitra and his friend Chitragati both began battle against King Anangsingh and his son Kamal.
During the war Chitragati snatched away precious divine sword of King Anangsingh. Sumitra and Chitragati succeeded. Looking at this illusionary world Sumitra became renunciatory and pursued initiation. After some time he died and reborn as deity in the heaven.

He asked reason for her lamentation. She said, "Oh! Prince... I am warden of Yashomati; the praiseworthy daughter of Champapuri city's King Jeetāri. Princess Yashomati had heard about the victor Shankhkumar; the prince of Hastinapur city and she decided to marry him. But, wicked Vidyadhar Manishekhar was infatuated by beauty of Yashomati and he has kidnapped her. Oh! Philanthropic Man! Kindly, discharge Yashomati from restrictions of that Vidyadhar.
Immediately Shankhkumar went in the direction shown by that warden. He saw bonded Yashomati in one cave. The mighty prince attacked Vidyadhar. The Vidyadhar had tried all types of power on Shankhkumar. But, he didn't succeed. Finally, he surrendered his self to Shankhlumar and apologized for his misdeeds. Yashomati

Vidyādhar Maņishekhar requested the couple to come to Vaitādhya Mountain. They worshiped God at various temples over there.
After that they came to Champāpuri city; at Yashomati's father's place. King Jeetāri became happy as he had such a nice sonin-law. They again came to Hastināpur city. King Shrishen was glad by looking at his daughter-in-law. He handed over lordship to Shankhkumār and pursued initiation.
Many years passed. Kevali Shrishen Muni came to Hastināpur city. Listening to the lecture of Kevalibhagwant Shankhkumār became renunciatory. But, he had enormous fascination towards Yashomati and due to this he was in dilemma. He asked reason for this fascination to Kevalibhagwant. Kevalibhagwant narrated relations of all the seven previous births right from the birth of Dhan and Dhanvati. And also said, “After the death, in next birth, you will be the deities at heaven called Anuttar plane. After completing life over there, you will reborn as the Nemināth Tirthankar. Yashomati will become Rājimati and will also attain salvation. You have relationship with Matiprabh since last three births and he will become your gaṇadhar”

After listening to this he relinquished everything and pursued initiation along with Yashomati and Matiprabh. He did Vishasthānak penance and constituted Tirthankar Nāmkarma. After peaceful death both became deities in the eighth birth at the Anuttar plane of Aparājeet heaven. Both were friends in heaven also.

When God was in embryo mother dreamed studded wheel and hence, God was baptized as 'Arishthnemi'. Later he was known as 'Nemikumar'.
Having height of ten bows Nemikumar became matured. Incredibly mighty and powerful Nemi secured zenith position in the hearts of all citizens. Once he was playing with fellows of his age group and whole troop reached to armoury of Krishna. In Krishna's armoury various elite weapons like sea shell, wheel, arc, mace etc. were available. Except Krishna no one was able to even touch those weapons.
But Nemikumar was the tirthankar... Much sturdier than Vasudev... Nemikumar immediately picked up the sea shell and blew it. The whole atmosphere was traumatized by the noise of sea shell. Because of loud clamor birds and animal also ran away. Vasudev Krishna was dazed... Who is this enemy? Vasudev Krishna came to armoury and was surprised by looking at the Nemikumār!
Nemikumar raised powerful Sudarshan Chakra (one type of wheel) on tip of his last finger. Very easily he picked up mace also. He bent arc as it is like slender stick...
To assess him Vasudev Krishna invited him for the combat of strength.
Nemikumār defeated Vasudev Krishna in few seconds.

Krishna struggled a lot but was unable to beat Nemikumār...
Vasudev Krishna's mind flickered. "If Nemikumar wishes then he can triumph my kingdom of three continents. Who is the Vasudev, me or the Nemikumar? I have to do something to restrain his muscles. Else in future I will be a zero." Krishna was thinking and at the same time he heard the oracle...
"Oh... Vasudev Krishna! Don't worry at all! Nemikumar is the twenty second tirthankar. He will pursue initiation in his bloom of life only."
This consoled Krishna. However, he told his eight queens to convince Nemikumar for marriage.
King Samudravijay and Shivadevi were also forcing Nemikumar for marriage. Many princesses were ready for marrying with him.
Vasudev Krishna's eight queens Satyabhāmā, Rukmani, Susima, Padmavati, Gauri, Gāndhāri, Laxmanā and Jambvati compelled Nemikumar for playing with them in river.
Nemikumar was uncommitted but, still to please them he joined. All the eight queens started explaining role of woman in the life and forced Nemikumar for marriage.
Nemikumar kept silence. They thought, "Nemikumar is ready for marriage and hence, he is not answering. Silence means 'YES"" They announced this matter over the whole city. All royal family

King Samudravijay and queen Shivādevi, all were happy by thinking about such a noble daughter-in-law Rājimati.
The Astrologer was called to fix the date of marriage. Astrologer said to King Samudravijay and Vāsudev Krishna that...
“King, right now rainy season is going on. Generally, auspicious ceremonies are avoided in this season. The best days for marriage will come only after completion of rainy season."
Krishna immediately replied, “Oh... Brother! After many efforts Nemikumār had agreed for this marriage. If we will pass some time then he will again change his mind. Hence, suggest us some early day for marriage.” Finally, they decided sixth day of bright half of Shrāvan month for marriage. The atmosphere of whole Dwārikā and Mathurā cities were cheerful.
The marriage party was incredible. Pageant started from Dwārikā. Ten Dashārho (Senior Persons), Vāsudev Krishna, Balbhadra etc. thousands of men joined the march. Singing the marriage songs all were going towards palace of King Ugrasen.
Princess Rājimati was also very eager to see her to be husband. She was intently looking towards Nemikumār. Two friends were teasing Rūjimati. But, Rājimati had forgotten every thing and she

On this side Nemikumār's marriage procession was proceeding ahead. Nemikumār heard shrill yowl of animals. He asked charioteer about the same. He immediately ordered charioteer to take reverse.
All were flabbergasted ... Nemikumār was going back... His chariot was returning... King Samudravijay etc. dashārho, Shivādevi etc. tried a lot to convince Nemikumār but... the person who is renunciatory and desperate for initiation, how will that person agree for marriage? God returned; it was like that he came just for reminding Rājimati about last eight births' relationships.
Lokāntik deities requested God to establish sacrament and God started 'Varsidān'. After giving donation for one year God sitting in 'Uttarkuru' palanquin, came to Sahastrāmra forest at Raivatāchal Mountain along with Shakra etc. Indra and Narendras. In Chitrā constellation, on sixth day of bright of Shrāvan month along with 1000 other kings God pursued initiation. He had two days fast. Immediately he attained Manparyavgyān.
On the next day he broke his fast at the place of Brahmin Vardutt. The deities rejoiced in sky with five divyas on this occasion.

In Potanpur city situated at south side of Meru Mountain in Jambudweep, well mannered, King Arvind was ruling. Many religious families were living in his empire. In the same city one religious Brahmin Vishwabhuti was residing along with his wife Anudhhara and two scholar sons Kamath and Marubhuti. His family was very prestigious. Though Kamath and Marubhuti were brothers there was vast difference in the nature of both.
Elder brother Kamath was angry and manner less... Whereas younger brother Marubhuti was patient and well-mannered...
Varuna was the wife of Kamath and Vasundhara was the wife of Marubhuti.

The parents handed over the responsibilities of family to both the brothers and passed away.
Marubhuti was very compassionate and was also helping the King Arvind in handling affairs of state. Due to this he frequently has to go out of the town. Whereas Kamath was enjoying and relaxing at home only. Marubhuti's wife Vasundhara was very good-looking. Though Kamath's own wife Varuna was present he was completely engrossed in Vasundhara. Vasundhara also got infatuated towards Kamath. They started licentiousness.
Once, Kamath's wife Varunā saw their immoral behaviour. She spoke to Marubhuti on this matter. It was unbelievable for Marubhuti. But, when he him self saw their iniquitous behaviour he became down in dumps.
Simple Marubhuti thought, "If I tell this matter to King then even for sake of modesty Kamath will realize." He narrated the story to King Arvind. But...how can a just King Arvind tolerate this?
King arrested Kamath and he punished Kamath by making him to sit on donkey and roam all over the city. All citizens scorned Kamath.
Kamath became very angry. "Marubhuti is responsible for such condition. He complained the matter to King and hence, I had to bear all this." Thinking in this way he ran away in forest and became

ascetic. He was meditating with huge aversion in the heart for Marubhuti. Here, Marubhuti was feeling glum. “I am responsible for my elder brother's insult. I should... I should apologize..."
Marubhuti came to forest for saying sorry to Kamath. He was about to bow Kamath but repugnant Kamath threw big stone on Marubhuti! Marubhuti's head got mashed. Marubhuti immediately died.
King Arvind got the news and realized futility of worldly relations. He pursued initiation... Kamath ran away and died with the feelings of'Ārtadhyān' in the heart. He became snake of Kukkut specie in the next birth.
Marubhuti also died with feeling of 'Ārtadhyān' in the heart at last moment. And hence, became elephant in the next birth. He became the spouse of 500 female elephants.
On this side Arvind Muni reached Sametshikhar Tirth along with huge crowd. The soul of Marubhuti; who was the elephant in this birth, came around the bottom of Vindhyāchal Mountain. It saw the huge crowd and became angry, as in forest it likes to remain lonely. The elephant became out of control. He started throwing people from its trunk. He also smashed many people under his feet. All started up roaring. The elephant ran and directly came to Arvind Muni. All became scared, “Oh! This mad elephant will trample the saint!”

Looking at Arvind Muni elephant became abated. He was gazing towards Muni.
Avadhigyāni Arvind Muni said, Oh! Marubhuti! Leave this idiocy. Who were you? Just think. In previous birth you accepted Shravak Dharm. You went to make apology to your brother who was the accused. And here you are killing innocent people. Due to feeling of 'Artadhyan' at the end moment you got the birth as animal. Still you are living with the feeling of 'Artadhyān', do you want more regression?"
Listening to this elephant recalled his previous birth. He was crying. Muni explained it Shravak Dharm and it had accepted the same. He became abstinent and was living with equal feeling in joy and sorrow. Looking at this incidence many people understood the true religion. Muni went somewhere else.
Elephant was living peacefully. Once he went into lake for drinking water. It went ahead and its legs were trapped into mud. It struggled a lot but was sticking more and more. It realized that "Now I won't be able to survive and my death is definite." He started meditating God (Panch Parmeshthi). At the same time Kukkut snake i.e. soul of Kamath came over there. Looking at elephant it started releasing flames out of its mouth. It remembered previous birth's hostility. With all its power it started stinging elephant repeatedly. Poison killed the elephant. The elephant was in acute pain but died peacefully. It was successful in remaining

abstinent at the end moment also. And due to this patience only, it got next birth in eighth heaven called Sahastrār.
Miserable snake! It lived in feeling of 'Ārtadhyān' and hence, got next birth in hell. The soul of Marubhuti had life of seventeen sāgaropam in the eighth heaven. His name was deity Shashiprabh. He worshipped God in various ways, did many good deeds and made his Samyak Darshan more clean and pure. Whereas soul of Kamath did many sinful deeds in the birth of snake and became hellish (Nāraki-the person who gets birth at hell) in the fifth hell. He also had life of seventeen sāgaropam. For seventeen sāgaropam, one brother lived in luxury and other lived in acute pain.

In the eighth birth the soul of Marubhuti came to the womb of queen Sudarshanā, wife of King Kushilbāhu at Purānpur city of eastern videh. The mother was extremely cheerful as she dreamed great dreams which were indicating that the fetus will become sovereign. The son was named Suvarnabāhu.

In the ninth birth, the soul of Marubhuti became Mahardhik deity at Mahāprabh plane of tenth heaven named Prānat. He had life oftwenty sāgaropam. He sensationally celebrated all the Kalyānaks of various Tirthankars. On the other hand, the soul of Kamath was bearing acute pain at the fourth hell for twenty sāgaropam.
The soul of Kamath detested his younger brother in earlier birth which consequently reached the saturation of rivalry.
After the birth of Kamath, four times he got birth in hell. Once he got birth as lion and twice as snake. He killed many innocents. Only once he got birth of human being and that too as vagabond... How can he worship God over there? On the other hand the soul of Marubhuti, who was responsible for insult of Kamath, also wandered so much... Marubhuti, elephant, Kiranveg, Vajranābh and Suvarṇabāhu... in all the five births he tolerate vexation done by the soul of Kamath.
In births of any tirthankar, this was happened for the first time that one soul exerted till death for five times. However, the soul of tirthankar was climbing upper and upper on the ladder of salvation and in next birth he is going to achieve the desired milestone...

When King Ashwasen was in parliament the ambassador of Kushasthal city came and said, “King! Our lord Prasenjeet has teenager pretty daughter named Prabhāvati. Her beauty is incomparable. Once, princess was playing in the garden with her friends. The wives of deities came for worshipping God in the nearby temple. They were praising Pārshwakumār. Prabhāvati has heard this and now she has decided to marry Pārshwakumār. Here, on the other side, the Yavan, King of Kaling arrived at Kushasthal city along with his army as he is induced by the beauty of Prabhāvati. King Prasenjeet has called for your help to accomplish her daughter's wish. King... Kindly come along with your army and show brutal Yavan your miracle.
King Ashwasen started preparation to go to help his friend Prasenjeet. Meanwhile, Pārshwakumār came and stopped his father. Pārshwakumār solely went to Kushasthal city and was successful in defeating Kaling's prince Yavan.
King Prasenjeet became emotional by the valour of Pārshwakumār.
“Prince! You did great favour to me and saved me. Now, kindly wed with my daughter and bless me.”
Princess Prabhāvati was very happy. How to control the joy after looking at the triumph ofbeloved one?
Pārshwakumār was there to favour and fight. How can he accept the proposal for marriage without his father's permission?

Pārshwakumar was renunciatory and how worldly lavishness can please renunciatory soul?
Pārshwakumar returned back to Banaras from Kushasthal city. King Prasenjeet came to Banaras along with princess Prabhavati. King Ashwasen warmly welcomed King and princess.
"King! Kindly accept the marriage proposal of my daughter for Pārshwakumar." King Ashwasen and queen Vāmādevi both were very happy on this proposal. The parents forced Parshwakumar and eventually Parshwakumar also accepted the same thinking that, "My Bhogavali Karma are still remaining"
Once, Parshwakumar was watching his township sitting in the corridor. At the same time he was surprised as all were going in same direction and all had various necessary materials for worship in their hands. He enquired and known that Kamath, who was a poor child from Brahmin ancestry, was doing various penances. All were going for worshipping that ascetic. Here, ascetic Kamath was doing one great penance called Panchagni.
Pārshwakumar also came with his family to have glimpse of Kamath. Avadhigyāni God saw snake burning in the fire place. Instantly he said to Kamath, "Oh... Great Ascetic! Compassion is the mother of all the religions. In this fire one snake is burning. Can't you see this?"
Till now Kamath met to the people who appreciated him and praised him. How can he bear the truth? Excited Kamath replied,

Pārshwakumār immediately ordered servants and took out burning piece of wood from fire. Carefully he cut the wood and shattered big snake came out.
Pārshwakumār told 'Navkār' to that snake and consoled it. It got peaceful death and reborn as Nāgrāj Dharanendra deity. All acclaimed Pārshwakumār and disregarded Kamath. Kamath reviled Pārshwakumār and went somewhere else. He started various types of penances and died.

Pārshwakumār returned to palace along with family. One day, Pārshwakumār went to art gallery. He saw the pictures of Nemikumār's marriage. He also saw the pictures showing how renunciatory Nemikumār forsook Rājimati.
Renunciatory Pārshwakumār became more renunciatory and now he was determined. Meanwhile, Lokāntik deities known that God's initiation time is coming soon and hence, they requested God to establish sacrament and God started 'Varsidān'.

On the next day he broke his fast with Kheer at the place of civilian Dhanya, at Koptak city. The deities rejoiced in sky with five divyas on this occasion. Chhadmastha God was meditating in the ascetic's hermitage. Deity Meghmāli; the rival of last ten births came over there.
He tried to disturb God. He released dangerous lions having paw of sharp nails and teeth like thunderbolt. After that, he released dangerous elephants, bears, leopards, poisonous snakes. But, God was completely engrossed. At last, that depraved deity started torrential rainfall along with hazardous lightening.
Dams and rivers were overflowing. The level of water was increasing very fast from God's knee to chest and so on... In few seconds water level reached God's neck. At the same time seat of Nagraj Dharanendra trembled. He known that God is in trouble and he produced golden lotus under God's feet. He protected God by making umbrella of his seven mouths. He covered whole body of the God and space arround him. God standing on lotus was looking like settled in divine plane.

Finally, Meghmāli awaked. He apologized and returned to his place. Dharnendra worshipped God and he also went to his place. God had same feeling towards both tyrannical Meghmāli and saviour Dharnendra. He didn't have any attachment with Dharnenda or hate for Meghmāli. Hence, it is called, "Kamathe Dharnendre Cha... Swochitam Karma Kurvati... Prabhustulya Manovruttim"
After wandering for eighty four days as Chhadmastha, God again came to Banaras. In Ashrampad garden, he was meditating below Ghatki tree. He had done penance of Aththam. In Vishakhā constellation, on fourteenth day of dark half of Chaitra (Phalgun) month, he attained pure Kevalgyan.
The deities constructed place of sermons. Below twenty seven bows long Chaitya tree sitting on studded seat God started his lecture. Listening to his lecture on fifteen Karmadān many souls pursued initiation and many souls became Shravak in real sense. Aryadutt etc. 10 became ganadhars of God Parshwanath.
King Ashwasen, mother Vāmādevi and queen Prabhavati etc. also pursued initiation.
In God Parshwanath Swami's administration, Parshwa having vehicle of tortoise was the adhishthāyakdev and Padmavati having vehicle of snake was the adhishthāyakādevi.

In Pruthvi Pratishthanpur city, at Mahāvapra continent of Jambudweep's western Mahāvideh, Mayer named Naysar was
living
One important principle of Naysar helped him in attaining appropriate tutor (Guru)

He was following the rule "Not to eat without feeding guest" He went into forest in search of guest and he had vision of Munibhagwant. He got golden opportunity of Supātradān (innocent bhiksha) Naysar also showed right route to saints. Looking at the gentle and eligible Naysar saints also prompted to show Bhāvmärg (way of religion) to Naysar. The saints provided exact understanding of Dev, Guru, Dharm (God, spiritual guide and Religion). Naysar also learnt Namaskar Mahāmatra in accurate manner. Oh! How wonderful Jainism is! Naysar attained Samyak Darshan with the knowledge regarding evaluation of Dev, Guru and Dharm.
He had been remembering favour done by the saints. He completed his life and reborn as deity in the first heaven with the life of one sagaropam. He arranged various programs for worshipping God and made his Samyak Darshan cleaner, which he had attained in the birth of Naysar. After completing life in the heaven, in the next birth he got birth as son of first sovereign King Bharat; the son of first Tirthankar God Rushabhdev. He was named as Marichi. The matured Marichi forsook world and pursued initiation after listening to the lectures of God Rushabhdev. However, Marichi was having very delicate body and because of strong Chariträvarṇiya Karma, he was unable to bear pains of saint's life. He designed a new dress of Tridandi by his own sense. Though he brought leniency in the rules of saint's life he had extraordinary faith on God's words. Looking at new dress, many souls came to Marichi to understand religion. The good orator Marichi showed everyone the correct way of God. And listening to

him many souls became renunciatory. They were having desire for initiation. Marichi inspired them to join the way shown by God Rushabhdev.
Once, God Rushabhdev came to Vinitā. The deities constructed place of sermons. King Bharat was present for listening to God's lecture. At the end of lecture King Bharat asked God, “God! Is there any soul in this class (Parshadā) who will become tirthankar in this team of twenty four tirthankar (Chovisi)?” God introduced Marichi, not only as last tirthankar of this Chovisi but also as first Triprushtha Vāsudev of this avasarpiņi and sovereign named Priymitra at videh.
King Bharat was very glad on listening to this. He came to Marichi and bowed him after three rotations and told, “I am not bowing to your dress but you will be the Tirthankar in future. And hence, I am bowing you." He narrated the whole things told by God. Marichi's joy was totally uncontrollable. Proud Marichi started dancing, “Oh... How great my lineage is! My grandfather is the first Tirthankar, my father is the first sovereign and now I will be the first Vāsudev!!! Really, no one will have such a great lineage in the world... Again I will be the sovereign, I will be the Tirthankar! Oh...! What a great lineage!” proud Marichi constituted Neech Gotra Karma... After the demise of God Rushabhdev he done great big mistake in the birth of Marichi.
Once, Marichi caught disease... How can saints of God serve Asanyat (here, Marichi is called as Asanyat as he was not following principles of self conduct properly)? Hence, Marichi thought, “I

Page #235

should also make one person my disciple.” Meanwhile, he lessoned Prince Kapil and Kapil developed attachment with Marichi. He decided to pursue initiation from Marichi. Marichi told him to pursue initiation from saints of God. Kapil said, “Is there no religion in your living?” Finished... who will look after me in future? This thought compelled Marichi to tell lie. He replied, “Kapil there is religion in both living in my as well as in their.” Because of this sentence only, rotation in world increased for God's soul. Samyaktwa attained in birth of Naysār was lost in the birth of Marichi. After completing life, Marichi reborn as Mahardhik deity in heaven named Brahma. He had life often sāgaropam.
BIRTH –5 to 15
In fifth birth he became Brahmin named Kaushik at Kollāk village. He adopted dress of Tridandi. After completing life of eighty lacs purva, he strayed in very small spicies. In sixth birth he became Brahmin Pushpamitra. He adopted dress of Tridandi. After completing life of seventy two lacs purva, he became medium stage deity in Saudharmendra heaven.

became medium stage deity at Māhendra heaven in thirteenth birth. In fourteenth birth he became Brahmin Sthāvar at Rājgruhi city with life of thirty four lacs purva. Finally, adopting dress of Tridandi, he completed his life and became medium stage deity in the fifteenth birth. After this he passed life in many small-small births.
BIRTH -16 to 21
Marichi done pride of his lineage, because of which God's soul achieved human life six times in-between 5 to 15 births but didn't get opportunity of Sudev, Suguru, Sudharma and Samyaktwa. In sixteenth birth he again attained Samyaktwa.
In sixteenth birth he became prince Vishwabhuti, who was son of Vishākhābhuti; the King of Rājgruhi city. The cousin brother Vishākhānandi was jealous of handsome and mighty Vishwabhuti. Once, Vishākhānandi cheated Vishwabhuti and his family because of which they had to leave the palace. Annoyed Vishwabhuti hit the Kothā tree and all fruits fell down from the tree. He told his cousin Vishākhānandi that, “I have a power to separate heads and bodies of all you people in this manner only. But, I am not doing such a disgusting work because I respect my elders. I am abandoning this world.” And Vishwabhuti pursued initiation. He did many penances. He did Māsakshaman (one month continuous fasts) in sequence and his healthy body got converted into lean. Once, Vishwabhuti Muni came to Mathurā city for innocent bhikshā. A cow hit him and he got collapsed. At the same time, cousin Vishākhānandi was passing near by from chariot. That wicked

person saw this scene. He mocked, “Oh! Where is your power of destroying Kothā tree?”
Muni forgot that he is saint and became furious. He lifted cow by its hat horns and threw it in the sky. Vishākhānandi saw violent Muni and ran away from there. Muni determined to become more powerful in future, with the help of his penance and reclusion.
After completing life of one crore years he became deity at Mahāshukra heaven in the seventeenth birth. In the eighteenth birth he came to the womb of queen Mrugāvati. She was the wife of King Ripupratishatru (Prajāpati) ruling over Pottanpur city of this Bharatkshetra. The queen dreamed seven great dreams indicating that fetus will become Vāsudev. He was baptized as Triprushtha.
The matured Triprushtha killed death defying lion at Tung Mountain without any weapon. That lion was the soul of Vishākhānandi. Triprushtha's power became world famous. He scuffled with Prativāsudev Ashwagriv and conquered lordship of three continents. Proud Vāsudev Triprushtha poured boiling lead into the ears of servant. He constituted ruthless and brutal dense Karma. He did many sinful deeds and after completing life of eighty four lacs years, in nineteenth birth he became hellish in the seventh hell.
After completing life of thirty three sāgaropam and after tolerating acute pain he became lion in twentieth birth.
In the twenty first birth he again got birth in the fourth hell. The soul of tirthankar has to ramble so much and that to where, just

because of the Karma. From twenty second birth onwards progress of God's soul will begin.
BIRTH-22 to 26
In the twenty second birth soul of God came to the womb of queen Vimalā. She was the wife of King Priymitra ruling over Rathpur city. The kid was named as Vimalkumar. King Priymitra handed over the responsibilities of kingdom to Vimalkumar. Just Vimal was looking after the civilians very nicely. Once, he went to forest. He saved a deer from hunter. Eventually, he pursued initiation and after peaceful death in twenty third birth the soul of God came to the womb of queen Dharini with fourteen great dreams. She was the wife of King Dhananjay ruling over Mooka city of Aparvideh. She delivered a bright coloured baby boy. The infant was baptized as Priymitra.
Priymitra became adult and he conquered all the six continents with the help of Chakraratna which got developed in his armory. At the end, Sovereign Priymitra pursued initiation from Pottilācharya.
In the twenty fourth birth, he became Mahardhik deity at Mahāshukra heaven. He had life of seventeen sägaropam. In the twenty fifth birth, he came to the womb of queen Bhadra.

He did Vishasthānak penance with Māsakshaman... With a great feeling in the heart that "If I have such a power so that I can divert all lives towards religion" (Jo Hove Muj Shakti Aaisi Savi Jeev Karu Shashanrasi) he constituted Tirthankar Namkarma. After having peaceful death in the twenty sixth birth he became Mahardhik deity at Pränat heaven.
BIRTH-27
The last birth of the honourable skipper God Mahaveer...
At Jambudweep's Bharatkshetra, near Kshatriyakund city, in Brahmankund village, one learned Brahmin Rushabhdutt was living. The soul of God came to the womb of his wife Devanandā. Generally, God never belongs to Brahmin lineage (Bhikshachari). In the birth of Marichi God did pride of his lineage and constituted Neech Gotra Karma. Due to this his soul passed eighty two days in the womb of Devananda who was belonging to the Brahmin lineage. By order of Saudharmendra Mahārājā Haringamaishi deity done the womb transplant from embryo of Devananda to embryo of queen Trishala. The queen Trishala was the wife of King Sidhhartha ruling over Kshatriyakund city. God came to the womb of Devānanda on the sixth day of bright half of Ashadh month and came to the womb of Trishaladevi on thirteenth day of dark half of Ashwin month. When God was in embryo of Devanandā, the

Devānandā had dreamed fourteen great dreams and when he came to the womb of Trishalādevi, Devānandā dreamed that all the fourteen dreams were going towards queen Trishalā. And at the same time Trishalādevi also dreamed fourteen great dreams.
The dream characteristic reader narrated the result of all the fourteen dreams. Listening to the same Trishalādevi became cheerful. Fetus God remained steady so that mother didn't get any trouble. But, Trishalādevi started howling and all in the palace were dazed. The queen was very upset. Avadhigyāni God realized mother's lamentation and God again started movements in the embryo. The queen Trishalā again became joyful.
After completion of pregnancy in Uttarāshādhā constellation, on thirteenth day of bright half of Chaitra month, queen delivered golden coloured baby boy having blot of lion. Immediately, after the God's birth 56 Dikkumāris and 64 Indras celebrated the stupendous birth ceremony as per their convention.
King Sidhhārth also celebrated the birth ceremony for ten days. There was continuous progress in the stock of money and food grains etc. when God was in embryo and hence, God was baptized as 'Vardhmān'.
The eight years old Vardhmān defeated deity of Saudharmendra heaven with excellent patience and heroism. Hence, he became famous as 'Mahāveer'.
When infatuated parents sent eight years old Vardhmānkumār to school Saudharmendra Mahārājā thought that this is the insult of

the person who had knowledge of three types. To stop this insult Saudharmendra Mahārājā him self disguised as Brahmin and came to school. He asked very tough questions to Vardhmānkumār but, Vardhmānkumār answered very well. Listening to his answers teacher also wondered! Saudharmendra introduced Prince Vardhmānkumār.
Having height of seven hands Vardhmānkumār became matured. The parents pressurized him for marriage. Due to this he thought that, “My Bhogāvali Karma are still remaining.” And he married with Yashodā; the daughter of King Samaveer. Unenthusiastically he passed time in the world. God had a daughter named Priydarshanā.
When God was twenty eight years old parents passed away. The period of swear which he had vowed in embryo was now over. He went to elder brother Nandivardhan for taking permission for initiation. Because of pressure of elder brother God stayed in world for two more years. When one year was left for God's initiation, nine Lokāntik deities requested God to establish sacrament and God started 'Varsidān'. He did donation for one year and after that along with thousands of deities and people Vardhmānkumār left Kshatriyakund city for pursuing initiation.
The deities constructed palanquin having length of 50 bows, width of 25 bows and height of 36 bows. Sitting in such a divine palanquin named Chandraprabhā God reached Gyātkhandvan garden. God removed all his ornaments by himself and wore the divine cloth given by Indra Mahārājā. Having two days fast God

solely vowed for 'Sarva Virti' in Uttarāshādhā constellation, on tenth day of dark half of Mārgashirsh (Kārtik) month. (In case of all other tirthankar many people have pursued initiation along with God but Vardhmānkumār alone pursued initiation) Immediately God attained Manparyavgyān.
God broke his fast with kheer at the place of Bahul Brahmin in Kollāg Sannivesh.
He gave great fight to Karma in the Chhadmastha period of twelve and a half years. The very first vexation was started on first night by cowherd and after twelve and a half years also the last vexation was done by cowherd only.
In the temple at Asthik village, dangerous vexations were done by Shoolpāņi in one night and at the end understanding was provided by God to Shoolpāņi!
When God went towards Shwetāmbi city Chandakaushik - a sight poisonous snake did great vexation to God and still compassionate God provided understanding to that hazardous snake also.
The vexation done by Sudanshtram Nāgkumār deity and protection and worship done by Kambal and Shambal Nagkumar deities.
Because of senseless and childish behaviour of cowherd; who was roaming along with God, God has to face imprisonment. But still God was composed and patient.

Once God was meditating at Polās temple of Dradhbhumi area. Saudharmendra Mahārājā praised God's patience at his assembly. The unfortunate and wicked Sangam deity couldn't bear the praise of God. He was jealous. He did twenty vexations in one night on God to break his concentration from meditation. Still he was not satisfied. He did misdeeds because of which God didn't get innocent food for six months. God did six months fast that too without water. In spite of all these God was impartial he didn't has any dislike towards Sangam deity.
When God reached Kaushāmbi city he did great resolution. That resolution was accomplished by Chandanbālā after five months and twenty five days.
In Vāsudev Triprushtha's birth God poured boiled lead into the ears of servant. As a result of which the soul of servant, who became cowherd in this birth, has hit pegs into the God's ears. He put the pegs in such a way that the ends of both the pegs were touching each other inside. In tremendous pain also God was composed.
The physician Kharak and the merchant Siddhārdha tried to remove the pegs from God's ears. At that time God screamed because of unbearable pain.

God also did great penance called Bhadra Pratimā (Two days fast along with enormous worship), Mahābhadra Pratimā (Four days fast along with enormous worship) and Sarvato Bhadra Pratimā (Ten days fast along with enormous worship). In twelve and a half years, God took food only for 349 days, remaining days he did fast that too without water.
He did great penance to break his Karma. He did enormous worship. Once, outside Jrumbhak village, at the bank of Hrujubālikā River, in the farm of Syāmāk, below Shāl tree he was meditating. He had two days fast. God attained pure Kevalgyān in Uttarāphālguni constellation, on tenth day of bright half of Vaishākh month.
Immediately, the deities constructed place of sermons. Due to misfortune of this Bharatkshetra God's first lecture was unsuccessful. No one had the quality of pursuing initiation. Next dayi.e. on eleventh day of bright half of Vaishākh month, he went to Pāwāpuri. The deities constructed sermons. Plaintiff Indrabhuti

Gautam etc. 11 Brahmins came to attend his lecture and to clear their doubts. They pursued initiation and God's administration was established. Indrabhuti etc. eleven became God's ganadhars and Chandanbālā etc. became the nuns of God. Many people also became Shrāvak in real sense.
Honourable God Mahāveer attained Kevalgyān at the age of 42 years. Afterwards, he roamed for 30 years in various villages and cities and did great favour to many souls during this period.
From Apāpāpuri he came to Brāhmaṇkund city. He inspired past parents Devānandā and Rushabhdutt; and they both pursued initiation.
Then God came to Kshatriyakund city. He inspired daughter Priyadarshanā and son-in-law Jamāli. They pursued initiation. Along with Jamāli and Priyadarshanā other 500 princes and 1000 princesses pursued initiation.
Jamāli learned eleven parts of our Āgam. He was conducting lecture for more then 1000 saints.
Once, Jamāli Muni came to Shrāvasti city. Jamāli Muni was suffering from severe acidity. He ordered other saints to arrange his bed.
Jamāli was unable to tolerate the pain. And hence, he became angry. He saw that saints were arranging the bed. Saints told that bed is ready. At that time Jamāli's conceit arose. He yelled, “When work is in progress it can not be said that work is done... I do not agree with God's principle.” Many saints went to God after looking

at the proud Jamāli. Nun Priyadarshana preferred the side of Jamāli because of the infatuation towards husband.
Now Jamali was arrogant by thinking that "I am superior than others." Once, Jamali came to Shravasti city along with other saints. Nun Priyadarshana also came along with 1000 nuns. Jamāli was in the garden. And nuns were in the school of potter Dhank. Potter Dhank was the great follower of God Mahaveer.
To realize the truth to Nun Priyadarshana he threw spark of fire on her cloths. She said, "Oh! Fortunate! What are you doing? My cloth has been burn by you."
"Respected Nun! Has the cloth burn according to our opinion? When cloth gets burn fully then only that cloth is called as burn. Why are you speaking lie?"
Priyadarshana realized her mistake. She came with her family of all nuns and apologized in front of God Mahaveer. And she followed the correct way of God. Jamāli didn't realize his mistake because of intense conceit. He spent his life as saint and worshipped self conduct for many years and hence, he became Kilbishiya deity (one type of inferior deities) at sixth heaven in the next birth.
After attaining Kevalgyan also God has to bear vexation done by cowherd. The cowherd released fire towards God. However, that fire renounced to cowherd's body. After bearing terrible ache of burn he apologized for his misdeeds and reborn as deity in the twelfth heaven. But, after completing life at heaven he will roam in

the world for very long time and till many births.
In the administration of God Mahāveer, Mātang having vehicle of elephant was the adhishthāyakdev and Sidhhāyikā having vehicle of lion was the adhishthāyakādevi.
The Last Tirthankar Honourable God Mahāveer passed thirty years of his life as Kevali. And he inspired many souls, saved them from this world and helped them in achieving salvation. He inspired Shreņik, Meghkumār, Nandishen, Abhaykumār, Prasannachandra, Shāl, Mahāshāl, Darshānbhadra, Dhanyakumār, Shālibharda, thief Rohiņaiyachor, King Udāyan, Halla, Vihalla, Sulsā, Chandanbālā, Mrugāvati and so on...
God's first gandhar Gautamswāmi was the head of 5000 disciple and all attained Kevalgyān.
The miraculous gañadhar Gautamswāmi had intense fascination for God. Because of which Gautamswāmi had attained Kevalgyān after the demise of God Mahāveer.
God Mahāveer Swāmi's family was as under:
14,000 Saints 36,000 Nuns
300 Persons with 14 great powers 1,300 Avadhigyāni 500 Manparyavgyāni 700 Kevalgyāni 400 Plaintiff

God hunched his end time and came to Apāpāpuri. The deities constructed place of sermons. God conducted lecture for non stop 16 prahars (approximately 48 hours). He explained the importance of struggle for salvation in all four types of struggle. God predicted the future of his administration by the result of the eight dreams which were dreamed by King Punyapāl. He described the conditions of lives. He also told the names of tirthankars and sovereigns etc. 63 great men who will get birth in next utsarpini. After the lecture God came to assembly of King Hastipāl.
He sent gañadhar Gautam to edify Brahmin Devsharmā. God had two days fast. In Swāti constellation, on last day of dark half of Kārtik (Ashwin) month, after midnight, God passed away.
The whole Bharatkshetra was grief. Ganadhar Indrabhuti Gautam got this news and he started weeping. Renunciatory he also attained Kevalgyān early in the morning.
God passed 30 years in world, 12.5 years as Chhadmastha and 30 years as Kevali. In this way after completing life of 72 years God passed away.
