## Chapter Thirty-Three
**417**
This one, named Nirnama, was a Yaksha-lika, who killed the Muni and was cruel to his mother, thus he incurred her hatred. ||16||
Hearing this, the king, Gangadeva, terrified of the world, entrusted his kingdom to his son, Devananda, and took initiation with two hundred kings near the Muni. ||163||
All the princes and the chief, Shankha, also took initiation. They all performed pure austerities to be freed from the cycle of birth and death. ||164||
The queen, Nandayasha, along with her nurse, Revati, and the merchant's wife, Bandhumati, took initiation near the Aryaika, Suvrata, adorned with the best vows. ||165||
Nirnama, as a Muni, performed the difficult austerity called "Lion-Play" and made the vow to be born as Narayana in the next life. ||166||
Revati, the nurse, attained the human form and became the wife of the merchant, Sudrishti, in the city of Bhadrailsa, and her name is Alaka. ||167||
Gang and the other six sons will be born in Devaki's womb, one after another, in pairs, and they will be mighty heroes, like oceans of valor. ||168||
Hari, the celestial being, the servant of the Indra, will bring the souls of the nurse and Alaka to the sons as soon as they are born, and they will attain youth there. ||169||
The eldest of these sons will be called Nripadatta, the second Devapala, the third Anikadatta, the fourth Anikapalak, the fifth Shatrughna, and the sixth Jitashatru. All your sons will be very similar in appearance, that is, they will have the same form. ||170-171||
All these princes will become disciples of the moon of the Hari-vamsa, the Guru of the three worlds, Shri Neminath Bhagwan, and will attain liberation. ||172||
Nirnama's soul will enter Devaki's womb and become the seventh son. He will be a very valiant hero and will be the ninth Narayana in this Bharat Kshetra. ||173||
Vasudeva, the knower of time, who praises the fortune of the Jain faith, heard from the Muni about the end of Kamsa and the rise of virtue, and he contemplated the rise of virtue. Thus, he became friendly with him, though with indifference. ||161||
And Nirnama, the Yaksha-lika, was born. This Yaksha-lika had killed the Muni in the guise of a cook and had been very cruel to his mother, so he incurred the hatred of his mother, Nandayasha. ||162||
