The thirty-third chapter: Dhanashri's Swayamvara

Dhanashri held a Swayamvara, to which all the Vidyadharas were invited. But the princess chose her father's nephew, Harivahana, as her husband. 136.

The other Vidyadharas were enraged, saying, "Why were we invited to this Swayamvara, when she was going to marry her own relative? This was a deceitful act." 137.

They then started fighting amongst themselves, wanting to kill each other. The son of King Chitrachula, who was also present at the Swayamvara, witnessed this shameful killing of Kshatriyas. He thought, "Oh! These are the evil consequences of indulging in the objects of the senses." Thus, he condemned the objects of the senses and became a disciple of the Bhootananda Jinendra. 138-139.

The seven Muni-Rajas attained Samadhi and became Samanika Devas in the Mahendra heaven, enjoying the fruits of their deeds for seven oceans of lifetimes. 140.

After that, the elder brother's soul was reborn in Hastinapur, the capital of Bharat, as the son of a wealthy merchant named Shankha, born to his wife Bandhumati. 141.

The remaining six brothers were reborn as the sons of King Ganga Deva, in the same city, born to his queen Nandayasha. They were born in three pairs: Ganga, Gangadatta, Gangarakshit, Nanda, Sunanda, and Nandishena. 142-143.

When the queen Nandayasha was pregnant with her seventh child, she was struck by misfortune. She was so distressed that she abandoned the child after its birth. The child was raised by a nurse named Revati. 144.

This abandoned child was named Nirnamak. He was very dear to Shankha, the son of the merchant. One day, Shankha took Nirnamak to a beautiful garden filled with people. 145.

There, the six sons of King Ganga Deva were having a meal together. Seeing them, Shankha said, "Nirnamak is your younger brother. Why don't you invite him to eat with you?" 146.

Hearing this, the princes invited Nirnamak to join them. He sat down to eat with his brothers. At that moment, his mother, Queen Nandayasha, arrived and, in a fit of rage, kicked him. 147.

Shankha was deeply saddened by this incident. He said, "It is because of me that Nirnamak has suffered this pain. I am cursed." Filled with sorrow, he took Nirnamak and left for the forest. 148.
