Bhagavati Sutra Bk. 9 Ch. 33
Bhagavan Mahavira at the Vahusalaka park, till with the umbrella decorated with korantaka flowers spread over his head and surrounded by many warriors, and passing through the city of Ksatriyakunda, he reached the chariot shed outside his house, stopped the horse and alighted from his vehicle. Then he came to his parents, and having expessed due respect for them, he said, "My dear parents! To-day I have heard the law (dharma) from no less a person than Bhagavān Mahāvīra. His words have impressed me profoundly, and they appear to me to be very wholesome." Parents replied, "Dear son! You are lucky. You are fortunate. You are pious.. You bear auspicious marks, so that you have heard the Law from no less a person than Bhagavān Mahāvīra, and that his words have impressed you and appeared to you to be wholesome."

Jamāli said to his parents thus: "My dear parents, I am always haunted by the fear the world is, the fear of birth, old age and death. So, my dear parents, if you be so kind as to permit me, I wish to give up the life of a householder, get my head tonsured and be initiated at the hands of Bhagavan Mahāvīra to join his holy order of monks."
