## Chapter Sixteen
**239**
**13.** Just as the earth is adorned with the blue sapphire, so too was Padmavati adorned with the auspicious marks and the radiance of the blue-throated Muni Suvrata.
**14.** The thrones and crowns of the three world-Indras trembled, and they, having quickly employed their knowledge of the future, understood the birth of the Jina. The rest of the gods, with great wonder, proclaimed the birth of the Jina with the sounds of bells, drums, kettledrums, and conch shells.
**15.** Filled with fragrant water, gentle wind, and showers of flowers, the entire world was filled. Indra and the other gods, adorned with the most brilliant ornaments, quickly circumambulated the great city of Kusagra.
**16.** Having bowed to the Jina and his parents, the gods and asuras performed the birth rites. The divine maidens, having placed the Jina on the back of Airavata, carried him with great splendor to the summit of Mount Meru.
**17.** Having circumambulated Mount Meru, they placed the Jina on a throne made of white stone, atop the mountain. They then performed his ablution with the pure water of the ocean of milk, adorned him with various ornaments, and praised him with hymns, naming him Muni Suvrata.
**18.** Bringing skilled ministers, they placed the Jina in the lap of his mother and performed a joyous play. Then, Indra and the other gods, having bowed to the Jina and his parents, who brought joy to the three worlds, returned to their respective places.
**19.** The Jina, adorned with three innate eyes of knowledge, with large and generous eyes, was served by the divine princes. Kubera, who was always attentive to the Jina's well-being, provided him with all the comforts and necessities, and the Jina's body and qualities grew.
**Meaning:** As the Jina's body grew, so too did his:
1. **Raga** (attachment)
2. **Mriga** (deer)
3. **Ganda** (smell)
4. **Jina** (parents)
5. **Sharira** (body)
