1. Sivabhai (Sivabhūti) Disciple of preceptor Kanha(2). His other name was Sähassimalla(2). He was a resident of Rahavirapura. He was very intelligent and courageous. The king of that place had tested his abilities. He was habituated to come home late in the night. One day his mother did not allow him to enter the house but asked to go whereever the doors were open. He went to the residence of preceptor Kanha and took to asceticism. Once he got a precious blanket from the king. The preceptor cut it into pieces and distributed among all his pupils. This he could no tolerate, and hence, abandoned all his clothes in protest and entered the state of clothelessness. i.e. nakedness. This is one view. The other view is that he was impressed by the scriptural passages relating to Jinakalp a and hence accepted the same. His sister Uttará (who was a hun) also abandoned the clothes. But a prostitute covered her again. According to other view, it was a house wife who covered that naked nun. Sivabhūt had two disciples: Kodipna(2) and Kottavīra. Soe niso Dodiya. 1. AvaCu.
