In the Padma Purana,
The spring season, adorned with the beauty of the king, causing agitation in the world, was engaged in pleasant conversation. ||14||
Its nails were Angkot flowers, it wore a Kurvak beard, its eyes were red Ashoka flowers, its tongue was a fluttering bud, it had acquired supreme fear in the minds of foreign people, and its neck hair was Bakul flowers. Such a spring lion arrived. ||15-16||
The Mahendrodaya garden of Ayodhya was beautiful by nature, but at that time, due to spring, it became as beautiful as Nandanvana. ||17||
Trees with various colorful flowers blooming and various types of leaves swaying, were as if mad, whirling in the face of the south wind. ||18||
The ponds, covered with lotuses, blue lotuses, etc., were filled with the sounds of flocks of birds, and their banks were served by people, were shining brightly. ||19||
The melodious sounds of swans, cranes, ducks, cuckoos, and carandas birds, which were difficult for passionate people to bear, began to be heard. ||20||
The pure water, agitated by their falling and rising, was becoming turbulent, as if filled with joy. ||21||
In the expansion of spring, the water was filled with lotuses, etc., the land with Kurvaks, etc., and the sky with their pollen. ||22||
At that time, clusters, shrubs, creepers, and trees, all kinds of plant species, were situated in various ways, achieving supreme beauty from all sides. ||23||
At that time, seeing Janakanandini, whose body was somewhat weakened by the fatigue caused by the womb, Rama asked, "O beloved! What do you like? Tell me. I will fulfill your desire. Why are you becoming like this?" ||24-25||
Then, Sita, with a lotus-like face, smiled and said, "O Lord! I wish to see many temples situated on the earth." ||26||
My desire is to respectfully bow down to the five-colored images of the Jinas, whose form is auspicious for the three worlds. ||27||
My great faith is to worship the Jina with golden and jeweled flowers. What else do I desire? ||28||
