## The Thirteenth Chapter

Having enjoyed Lakshmi for a long time, the king, Bharateshwara, the lord of the earth, crowned his son, Arka-kirti, and himself embraced the Jain initiation, a difficult and arduous path of self-control, a net to capture the wild, unruly herd of senses. 1-2.

Gautama Swami says, "O King Shrenik! Maharaja Bharat uprooted all his five senses and his karmic bonds were so quickly extinguished that he attained Kevala Jnana (omniscience) immediately after shedding his hair and nails." 3.

Thereafter, thirty-two Indras came and worshipped his Kevala Jnana. Bharat, who was like a lamp illuminating the path to liberation, ruled the earth for a long time. 4.

The all-seeing Lord Bharat lived for eighty-four lakh Puryugas (a unit of time). Out of these, seventy-seven lakh Puryugas were spent in his childhood, six lakh Puryugas in his reign as a king, and one lakh Puryugas in his life as a monk. 5.

At the end of his life, he ascended Mount Kailasa with his disciples, Vrishabhasena, etc., and attained liberation after shedding all remaining karmas. The gods praised him. 6.

Arka-kirti had a son named Smiti-yasha. Arka-kirti, through his austerities, attained liberation and gave Lakshmi to his son. 7.
