## Chapter 224: The Story of the King Who Rejected the Advice of the Wise Man
The king was wandering around. Seeing this, his servants informed him. Pleased by this, the king granted him a boon. The wise man, using the words of a woman, asked for food and gold coins from house to house. The king did as he asked. One day, the wise man said, "Give me your food." The king replied, "My food is for me alone." The wise man said, "You are a miser, you are unable to give." Then, the king fed him and his family. He became intoxicated with lust. At night, he engaged in animalistic behavior with his mother and others. He was ashamed of his actions after he sobered up.
Then, one day, seeing a shepherd making holes in peepal leaves with an arrow, he gave him something and made him blind the king. The king was captured and about to be killed. When asked how he had done this, the shepherd pointed to the wise man. Then, the king and his family were killed.
After this, the wise man, enraged by the killing of his family, ordered the king's men to bring him the eyes of the Brahmins every day. The minister brought them and showed them to the king. The king crushed them with his hand and released them. The minister, seeing the killing of so many lives, took a plate with a head and seedless vataguṇḍaka fruits and presented it to the king. The king, in his drunken rage, killed him.
Thus, after sixteen years, he died in a fit of rage and went to the seventh hell.
**Verse 1:**
The king, with the heart filled with the cruelty of crushing vataguṇḍaka fruits and the violence of blinding eyes, went to hell, filled with the thoughts of harming and killing.
**Chapter 36: The Story of Prasannachandra in the Sri Samvega Rangashala**

**Verse 2:**
He was wandering with his guru, Jayaguru, and had attained wealth in the city of Rayaggingham. He was content with his simple life, relying on the support of his shoulders.
**Verse 3:**
He was seen by two groups of people: those who worshipped the Jinas and those who were enemies of the Jinas.
**Verse 4:**
The group who worshipped the Jinas said, "Victory to him! This is the easy way to live. If he renounces the kingdom and becomes a monk, he will be happy."
**Verse 5:**
The group who were enemies of the Jinas said, "Friend! Stop this talk. He is unfit to be a king. He should have put his son on the throne."
**Verse 6:**
"He has renounced the wrong path and is living in fear of his enemies. He is enjoying the kingdom, but he is suffering from his enemies."
