In the Padma Purana,
The sage said to the noble-hearted Hanuman, "Very well, let it be so. Having seen the essence of the world, do what is best for yourself." ||28||
"Your noble mind, which has arisen to attain the eternal state with a perishable body, is truly commendable." ||26||
Having received this permission from the sage, Hanuman, filled with the fervor of renunciation, bowed down, satisfied, and sat on the lotus posture. ||30||
He immediately discarded his crown, earrings, necklace, and other ornaments, his clothes, and his mental possessions. ||31||
He broke the chains of his beloved, burned the net of attachment, severed the bonds of affection, and abandoned happiness, which was like poison. ||32||
Seeing his body as extremely perishable and harmful, he extinguished the darkness of delusion with the flame of detachment, and plucked out the hair on his head with his delicate fingers, which had conquered the lotus. ||33||
Thus, free from all attachments, a devotee of the goddess of liberation, a follower of the great vows, and adorned with the goddess of renunciation, the noble Hanuman shone brightly. ||35||
At that time, seven hundred and fifty Vidhyadhara kings, inspired by renunciation and devotion to the Lord, noble-minded, pure-hearted, and filled with great fervor, renounced their kingdoms for their sons and embraced the path of renunciation. ||36-37||
Thus, those who were extremely happy and free from all blemishes, such as Vidhyudgati and others, attained the glory of Hanuman, shining like him. ||38||
Then, those who were consumed by the fire of separation, who were filled with great sorrow, who were deeply compassionate, who were filled with renunciation, who were noble, who were afraid of the world, who were wise, who were free from great ornaments, and who were adorned with the ornament of virtue, those queenly women went to the famous Aryika named Bandhumati, bowed down with devotion, performed the highest worship, and took initiation. ||39-41||
At that time, their wealth seemed like withered grass to them. The great people, for the most part, were deeply devoted to renunciation, like those who are in love. ||42||
I desire this, therefore, please be pleased with me. ||26-27||
