The ascetics, enveloped in the garment of the Dharma-meditation, stand on the open platforms of the forest at night, their minds absorbed in Dharma-meditation. 13. At that time, in the cold season, when the trees are destroyed by the great cold wind, the lotus forests are withered, and people delight in the sunrise, they reside in the sanctuaries of the palaces as they please. 14. Their chests are the bases for the play of the breasts of young women. 15. They make sweet sounds, produced by the vina, mridanga, flute, etc., at will, a supreme nectar for the ears. 16. They are served by beautiful women, who have conquered the vina with their voices, with great respect, and are like gods served by goddesses. 17. Thus, they spend their time happily, endowed with abundant pleasures, day and night, by the influence of all their good deeds. 18. Thus, those two supreme men were dwelling happily. O King! Now listen to the story of Shri Sail Veer. 19. By the influence of his past good deeds, Hanuman, the son of the wind, enjoys supreme sovereignty in the city of Karna Kundala, like a god. 20. Endowed with the greatness of the Vidyadharas and the most excellent actions, Hanuman roams the earth at will, accompanied by thousands of women. 21. Mounted on an excellent chariot and endowed with excellent splendor, Shri Hanuman plays like a god in the excellent forests and other regions. 22. Once, in the spring season, which is the cause of the madness of the world, adorned with flowers and filled with the fragrance of the beloved, 23. Hanuman, whose mind was filled with devotion to the Jinas, was delighted and set out towards Mount Meru, accompanied by his inner palace. 24. He stopped at the peaks of the Kulachala mountains, which were adorned with various kinds of beautiful flowers and served by the gods. 25. Those forests were full of intoxicated bees and cuckoos, and were beautiful to behold because of the many lakes. 26. Those forests, with their various trees, flowers, and fruits, were enjoyable for couples, and were adorned with mountains studded with jewels. 27.
