In the Harivamsha Purana, even though they are situated in their respective places, they appear to be present in the sky, having emerged from those places, for those who see them face to face, as instructed. ||139||
There are three shining seats in the four directions. In the first seat, there are four thousand Dharmachakras shining. ||140||
In the second seat, there are eight great flags, different from the flags of peacocks and swans, shining in the directions. ||141||
In front, there is a magnificent palace called Gandhakuli, adorned with auspicious objects, which illuminates the Srimandapa. In it resides the Lord's throne. ||142||
On that throne, the Jina Lord was seated. Crowds of men, gods, and demons, with their minds filled with joy, praised him with their hands placed on their crowns. ||143||
They said, "Victory to you, O Mahadeva! Victory to you, O Maheshvara! Victory to you, O Mahabaho! Victory to you, O Mahekshana!" ||144||
After countless such praises, Varadatta immediately took initiation and became the first Ganadhara, the lord of the ganas. ||145||
At that time, Rajimati, along with six thousand queens, also took initiation and became the head of the group of Ayikas. ||146||
All the groups of monks, starting with the group of monks, and the twelve ganas, paid their respects to Lord Nemnath in their respective places and worshipped him. ||147||
The twelve assemblies surrounded the path, with the group of monks in the east, south, and other directions. ||148||
There, in front of Varadatta, who bestows great boons, shone many monks, who were like pure embodiments of Dharma, like the very essence of the Dharmaeshvara. ||149||
In front of them, shone the Kalpavasini goddesses, who seemed to be the external and internal manifestations of the Lord, taking on their form. ||150||
After them, in the third assembly, sat the Aryikas, adorned with the wealth of qualities like shame, compassion, forgiveness, and peace, like the daughters of true Dharma. ||151||
