In the Padma Purana,
The muni's feet touched the stone, and Simhendu was revived. ||12||
Having paid homage to the Caitya with devotion, Kesari Chandra, along with his beloved, bowed repeatedly to the muni. ||18||
As the sun rose, the muni's observance ended. Vinayadatta, the devotee, arrived to pay his respects. ||18||
The disciple, having received the message, went to the city and informed Srivardhita that Simhendu had arrived. Hearing this, Srivardhita prepared for battle. ||185||
Then, having been informed of the truth, Srivardhita, with a joyful heart, went to his brother-in-law, eager to show him honor. ||186||
Then, having met with his loved ones, and filled with joy, Srivardhita, bowing respectfully, asked the seated Muni Maya, "O Bhagavan, I wish to know my past birth and that of my family." Then the virtuous Muni spoke as follows: ||187-188||
In the city of Shobhapura, there was a Digambara Muni named Bhadracharya. The king of that city was Amal, adorned with a multitude of virtues. ||189||
Amal, with a noble heart, went to serve the Acharya every day. One day, while going, he encountered an unbearable stench. ||160||
The stench, emanating from the body of a leper, was so terrible that the king could not bear it and quickly walked home. ||161||
That leper woman had come from another place and stayed near the temple. The stench was coming from her wounds. ||162||
She took the Anuvrata from Bhadracharya and, after dying, went to the celestial world. From there, she was reborn as your wife, Sheela. ||163||
The king Amal, having entrusted all his royal duties to his son, was pleased with the eight great vows and became a Shravaka. ||164||
Simhendu was laid near his feet. ||181||
Simhendu, touching the feet of the Muni, touched the body of his wife, which revived her. ||182||
After that, Simhendu paid homage to the image with devotion, and then, along with his wife, bowed repeatedly to the Muni. ||183||
Then, as the sun rose, the Muni's observance ended. At that time, Vinayadatta, the devotee, arrived to pay his respects. ||184||
The disciple, having received the message, went to the city and informed Srivardhita that King Simhendu had arrived. Hearing this, Srivardhita prepared for battle. ||185||
