1. Parihara 3: Kathayen
233. They did not flee from there. The king also imprisoned them. The merchants pleaded with the king, "We are Vaniks (merchants), not thieves."

7. Anumodana: Rajadushta-dristanta
In the city named Srinilaya, there was a king named Gunachandra. His queen's name was Gunavati. In that city, there lived a merchant named Surup. His body was more beautiful than Kamadeva (the god of love). Beautiful women constantly desired him. He was attached to other women's wives. Once, he was passing by the king's inner palace. The queens of the inner palace looked at him with passionate eyes. He also looked at them with the same gaze. They developed mutual attachment. Through a messenger, he started enjoying intimacy with them daily. This news reached the king. When he reached the inner palace, the king's men caught him. He was adorned with the same ornaments with which he had entered the inner palace, and was publicly beaten to death at the city's crossroads. Seeing the destruction of his inner palace, the king became very sorrowful. Even after killing him, the king's anger did not subside. He summoned his messengers and said, "Go to the city and find out who is praising that wicked person and who is condemning him. Inform me of both." The king's men, disguised as commoners, started roaming the entire city. Some people were saying, "Every person who is born, dies. We are unfortunate because the queens of the inner palace never come into our sight, but that person is fortunate, who enjoyed his pleasure for a long time and then died." Others started saying, "This person is worthy of condemnation, unfortunate, who has acted against both the worlds. The king's queens are like mothers. How can the one who enjoyed intimacy with them be worthy of praise by the wise?"
The king's men presented both types of people before the king. Considering those who condemned him as wise, the king honored them, and threw those who praised him into the jaws of death.
8. Aadhakarm: Shalyodana-dristanta
In the village named Sankula, there lived a Shravaka (Jain lay follower) named Jinadatta. His wife's name was Jinamati. In that village, Kodrava and Ralaka grains were grown in large quantities. The ascetics also used to take their food there. The village's Upashray (Jain residential hall) was devoid of women, animals, and eunuchs, and was extremely pleasant. Swadhyaya (self-study) also took place there uninterruptedly. In that village, there was no Shalyodana (rice cooked with vegetables), so no Acharya (Jain preceptor) used to stay there.
