## Chapter Thirty-Three
Having broken the bonds of familial affection with the nails of knowledge, the Lord has emerged from the cage of the world, like a lion. ||114||
Behold, by this virtuous one, the enemy of the mind is subdued. By the grace of nakedness, the abode of virtue is attained. ||115||
"My soul is not yet satisfied. Therefore, I will remain in this household and find contentment in the delightful practice of Anuvrata." ||116||
Thinking thus, he accepted the householder's dharma from the Muni. With a heart overflowing with emotion, he made this vow: "I will not bow to anyone other than the Lord of Lords, the Supreme Soul, the unchanging Jina, and the liberated Munis, the great ones, the free from attachments." ||117-118||
With great reverence, he performed a grand puja for the Muni, known as Pritivardhana, and observed a fast with a steady mind. ||119||
The virtuous one instructed the king, seated nearby, about the supreme benefit: "By worshipping this, the embodied beings are liberated from the world." ||120||
"There are two types of excellent conduct: Sagara and Anagara. The first, with its dependence on external objects, is for householders. The second, free from dependence on external objects, is for the Munis, who wear the sky as their garment." ||121||
"Purity of vision, combined with austerity and knowledge, is well-known in the Jina's teachings, as the first and other stages of Anuyoga." ||122||
Understanding the extreme difficulty of the conduct of the liberated Munis, the king again and again considered the practice of Anuvrata. ||123||
Realizing that he had attained the supreme Dharma-Dhyana, he was filled with immense joy, as if a poor man had found a great treasure. ||124||
Seeing the king, who had been so cruel, now pacified, the Muni was also filled with great joy. ||125||
Then, the Muni, the bearer of the Yajna of virtue, went to another place suitable for austerity. The king, filled with supreme glory, remained there. He was content with the great benefit he had received. ||126||
The next day, having honored the guest as prescribed, and having performed the Parana, the king bowed at the Muni's feet and returned to his palace. ||127||
