In the Padma Purana, there was a king named Amitanka in the city of Rajapura. He became a disciple of Sudharma Mitra and went to Brahmaloka. ||18|| From there, he was born as Vijay in the same city of Kampilya, to queen Yashovati. He was known as Jayasen, the ruler with the wheel-kissed edict. ||189|| Abandoning his great kingdom, he took the Digambara initiation and worshipped the Triratna, attaining the Siddha state. ||190|| This happened between the times of Munisuvratnath and Naminath.
Now, we describe the twelfth Chakravarti.
In the city of Kashi, there was a king named Sambhuta. He became a disciple of the Muni named Svatantralinga and was born in a Vimana called Kamalagulma. ||191|| From there, he was born as Brahmadutta, the twelfth Chakravarti, in the city of Kampilya, to king Brahmaratha and queen Chula. ||192|| This Chakravarti enjoyed Lakshmi but did not renounce her, and in that unrestrained state, he died and went to the seventh hell. This happened between the times of Neminath and Parshvanath. ||193||
Gautamswami tells king Shrenik, "O king of Magadha! Thus, I have described the six-section rulers, the Chakravartis. They were so powerful that even the gods and demons could not stop their progress." ||194|| "I have spoken of the fruits of virtue and vice directly. Why do people not do the right thing after hearing, experiencing, and seeing it?" ||195|| "Just as a traveler does not go to another village without taking food like appu, so too, this being does not go to another world without the food of virtue and vice." ||196|| "Those who dwell in excellent mansions, filled with the best women and as high as Mount Kailasa, are the fruit of the tree of virtue." ||197|| "And those who are immersed in the mud of poverty, dwelling in crooked houses with the hardships of cold, heat, and wind, are the fruit of the tree of vice." ||198|| "Those kings and emperors who ride on elephants as tall as the peak of Vindhyachala, with fly whisks waving over them, are the fruit of the virtuous paddy." ||199|| "Those who ride on beautiful horses with fly whisks waving on either side, and who have a beautiful body, are the result of the virtuous king's actions." ||200||
Now, we describe the eleventh Chakravarti.
