In the Padma Purana, it is said that Pradyumna and Samba, the sons of Krishna, were born in Dwarika in the Bharat Kshetra. The difference between the Ramayana and the Mahabharata is 64,000 years. Arista-nemi, the Tirthankara, fell from heaven and was reborn as Madhu in the Bharat Kshetra, as the son of Vasudeva and Rukmini. The king of Magadha said to Gautam Swami, "O Lord, just as a wealthy person is never satisfied with wealth, I am not satisfied with your words, which are like nectar." "O Lord, please tell me the story of Achyutendra Madhu. I wish to hear it. Please be gracious to me." "O Ganendra, who is devoted to meditation, please tell me the full story of Madhu's brother, Kaidabha, as you know it well." "What good deeds did he perform in his previous life? How did he obtain the three jewels, which are extremely rare and the best in the three worlds?" "O Lord, your words are revealed step by step, and my mind is also grasping the subject step by step. My heart is also becoming very eager. In this way, everything seems appropriate." Gautam Ganadhar said, "In the Magadha country, which is full of all kinds of grains, where the four varnas are very happy, which is full of dharma, artha, and kama, which is adorned with beautiful chaityalayas, which is filled with cities, villages, and mines, which is very beautiful with rivers and gardens, and which is full of assemblies of sages, there was a great king named Nityodit at that time. In the same country, there was a village called Shaligram, which was equal to a city." "In that village, there was a Brahmin named Somadev. His wife was Agnila, and they had two sons named Agnibhuti and Vayubhuti." "Both of these sons were proficient in the six rituals, including Sandhya-vandana, they were experts in the Vedas and scriptures, and they were full of pride in their scholarship, thinking, 'Who is better than us?'" "Due to the great fire of pride, they were filled with excessive madness. They thought, 'Enjoyment is always worthy of being enjoyed,' and they turned away from dharma."
