The 60th Chapter: 707. In the Tirtha of Pushpadanta Jinendra, due to the cessation of Dharma, there was a lack of Bhavyas (souls destined for liberation) in the land of Bharat. ||12|| A Brahmin, afflicted by worldly desires, initiated the practice of giving away cows, daughters, gold, and other things, which were the cause of bondage to sin. ||13|| He deluded the ignorant people and spread his influence even to the kings. Thus, he became involved in sinful activities and ultimately went to the seventh hell. ||14|| After being released from hell, he wandered through the realms of animals and hell beings. By chance, he obtained a human birth. ||15|| On the banks of the Gandhavati river, on the Gandhamadana mountain, he was born as a Bhil named Parvatak, the husband of a woman named Vallari. ||16|| Two Charanas (ascetics) named Shridhar and Dharma, possessing great spiritual powers, came to that mountain. Seeing them, Parvatak felt some peace and was instructed by them to observe a fast. He died a righteous death. ||17|| In the city of Alka, on the mountain of Parvat, a son named Harivahan was born to a Vidyadhara named Mahabal, in the family of a Vidyadhara named Jyotir-mala, as the brother of Shatabali. ||18|| King Mahabal appointed both his sons, Shatabali and Harivahan, to royal duties. He himself took initiation from the Guru Shridhar and attained the supreme bliss of liberation, which is the main fruit of initiation. ||19|| Due to some conflict between Shatabali and Harivahan, the elder brother Shatabali banished him. The exiled Harivahan resided on the Ambudavarta mountain in the land of Magali. ||20|| At that time, two Charanas named Shridhar and Anantavirya, possessing great spiritual powers, came there. Seeing them, Harivahan took initiation and ultimately attained the Aishana heaven by performing Sallekhana (voluntary death). ||21|| As a Deva (god), he enjoyed the pleasures of the Devas, but due to the karmic consequences of his past actions, he fell from that realm. He was born as a daughter named Satyabhama to Queen Swayamprabha and King Suketu. ||22|| In this birth, you will perform austerities and become a great Deva. After falling from that realm, you will perform austerities as prescribed by the Jinas and attain the bliss of liberation. ||23|| Hearing her past lives and knowing that liberation was near, Satyabhama rejoiced and bowed down to the Lord. ||24||
