"Is this fragrance from these trees bearing blooming flowers, or from my body, which rests on a bed of flowers?" (14) "Or is Rama, along with Sita, residing above? Or has some god arrived here?" (15) Then, the king of Magadha, Shrenik, asked the great sage, "O Bhagavan, whose fragrance was it that caused Lakshmana to be astonished?" (16) Then, the Ganadhara, who knew the activities of the world, spoke, like the sun dispelling the darkness of doubt and the wind blowing away the dust of sin. (17) "When the second Jina, Shri Ajitanatha, was in Samavasarana, a Vidyadhara named Meghavahana, terrified, sought refuge in the Lord. At that time, the lord of the Rakshasas, the wise Mahaabhima, out of compassion, gave a boon to Meghavahana, saying, (18-19) "O Meghavahana! There is a vast Rakshasa island in the southern ocean, on which there is a mountain called Trikut. Go there, without worry, and reside on that Trikut mountain. There, taking refuge in the platform of Jambudvipa, the Rakshasas have established a city called Lanka in the southern direction. You reside there." "O Vidyadhara! Along with this, listen to another secret, confidential matter. The Bharat Kshetra, related to Jambudvipa, is situated in the southern direction. Taking refuge on the northern bank of the salt ocean, there is a natural place, situated within the earth, which is eight yojanas wide. Entering the great gate, situated at the foot of the Dandaka mountain, through the arches of jewels, (20-25) you will see a city called Alankaroday, which is the best and most beautiful. It is situated in the land of the hundred Dharmas, a divine land. It is adorned with a multitude of rays of various kinds of jewels, and is capable of causing wonder even to the inhabitants of the heavens. It is inaccessible to those who fly in the sky, and is devoid of Vidyadharas. It is full of all kinds of desirable qualities, and is filled with various kinds of buildings." (26-27) "If, at any time, you are attacked by the Parachakra, take refuge in that fort and reside there without fear." (28) Thus, the Vidyadhara boy, who was spoken to by Mahaabhima, went there. From him, many noble descendants were born in Lanka. (29)
