Harivansh Purana, in the end of the story of Duman Rishi, Shanku asked him about the past births of Nirnamak. The Muni, knowing the past births, told him as follows:

14. There was a king named Chitra Rath in the city of Giri Purva. His wife was Kanak Malini, a virtuous and beautiful woman.

15. The king was fond of meat. He had a cook named Amrit Rasayan, who was an expert in cooking meat. The king was pleased with his skills and made him the lord of ten villages.

152. The king heard about the demerits of eating meat from Sudharma Muni. Impressed by his words, he gave his kingdom and wealth to his son, Megh Rath, and took initiation with three hundred kings to attain liberation.

153. The new king, Megh Rath, became a Shravak and humiliated the cook, reducing him to the lord of only one village.

154. The cook was enraged by this incident. He thought that the Muni who prohibited meat was the reason for his humiliation. So, he gave the Muni a poisonous meal made of bitter gourd and killed him.

155. The Muni died on Urjayant Giri. Due to his strong meditation, he was reborn as Ahmindra, the lord of the Aparajit Vimana, with an age equal to thirty-two oceans.

156. The cook died and was reborn in the third earth, Baluka Prabha. He suffered the intense pain of hell for three oceans of time.

157-158. From there, he wandered in the great forest of the Tiryanch Gati. Once, he was born as the son of Yakshdatt and Yakshilla, a couple living in the village of Palash, in the Malaya country. His name was Yakshlik. He was foolish by nature and younger than his brother, Yakshsav.

159-160. Once, the wicked Yakshlik was riding in a chariot. An old blind serpent was lying in the middle of the road. Despite his brother's warning, the evil Yakshlik drove the chariot over the serpent, cutting off its tail. The serpent was dying in pain. At that moment, due to the Akamanirjara, she attained the human birth.

161. After that, the serpent died and was reborn in the womb of Vasundhara, the queen of Vasav, the king of Shwetaambika Puri, as Nandayasha.
