The Forty-Seventh Chapter
279. Outside the Chaitya-alaya, Chandrodara's sons, having settled their army, were free from fatigue. ||135||
Inspired by the stories of the virtues of Rama, the thirteen daughters of Sugriva, with the desire for self-choice, went there with joy. ||136||
The first was Chandrabha, with a face like the moon, the second was Hridyaavali, the third was Hridya-dharma, who was like a thorn in the heart, the fourth was Anundhara, the fifth was Shrikant, like the second Lakshmi, the sixth was Sundari, beautiful in every way, the seventh was Suravati, who was like a celestial woman, the eighth was Manovahini, skilled in controlling the mind, the ninth was Charushri, known for her beauty, the tenth was Madanotsava, who was like the festival of Madan, the eleventh was Gunavati, adorned with a garland of virtues, the twelfth was Padmavati, with a face like a blooming lotus, and the thirteenth was Jinamati, always devoted to the worship of the Jinas. Taking all these daughters, their entourage went to Rama. ||137-142||
Saluting Rama, he said, "O Lord! You are the refuge of these daughters in their self-choice. O Lokesh! You are the best friend of these daughters." ||143||
Hearing the name of the protector of their lineage, the daughters' hearts naturally felt that their marriage should not be with the lowly Vidhyadharas. ||144||
Then, burdened with shyness, their faces bowed, adorned with beauty, their radiance like a lotus, and filled with youthful vigor, all the daughters went to King Ramachandra. ||145||
Their bodies, shining like lightning, fire, gold, and the inner petals of a lotus, illuminated the sky with their brilliance. ||146||
With graceful, elegant bodies and dignified manners, all the daughters sat down near Rama. ||147||
