52. In the *Anga Rishi Katha* section of the *Shree Aavashyakahari Bhadriya Vritta*, there is a story about a teacher named Champak Kosi Ajjo. He had two disciples - Angarisi Ruddo and Ango Bhaddo. Angarisi was named so because of his Anga (body) and Ruddo was named so because he was a *ganthi-chhed* (one who cuts knots). Both of them were sent by their teacher to carry wood. Angarisi was carrying a heavy load and was struggling. Ruddo, on the other hand, was enjoying himself and was looking at the scenery. He saw Angarisi struggling with the heavy load and thought, "This fellow is being exploited by the teacher." At that moment, a young boy named Joijasa, who was carrying food for his father, a *panthaga* (one who travels on foot), was passing by. Ruddo hit the boy with a stick. Angarisi, seeing this, put down his load and went to the teacher, complaining about Ruddo's behavior. He said, "Just like you hit the innocent Joijasa, who was so handsome and full of life, Ruddo has come here." The teacher, hearing this, thought, "The *suhaj-jhavasana* (one who has attained the highest state of liberation) has attained *jati* (birth), *sariya* (conduct), *sanjama* (self-control), *keval-nana* (omniscience), and *deva-mahima* (divine glory). He has been told by the gods that if he gives *abbakhana* (food) to this fellow, Ruddo will be ridiculed by people." He then thought, "It is true that I gave him *abbakhana*." With this thought, he attained *sambuddhi* (perfect knowledge), *patteya-buddhi* (understanding), and became a *brahmana* (one who has attained the highest state of knowledge). He also attained the four *pavvaya* (stages of liberation) - *uppanna-nana* (arising knowledge), *siddha* (perfected), etc.
53. In the *Aaramdha-dhyana* section of the *Shree Aavashyakahari Bhadriya Vritta*, there is a story about *Kurudo-utkurudo*.
The fourth *karado-kurudo* was a teacher who lived in Kunala-nayeri, at the foot of a mountain. During the rainy season, the gods showered their blessings on the city, but the people were suffering due to the heavy rains. The *karado* was angry and said, "Oh, rain god! Kunala!" The *utkurudo* said, "Ten days and five more." The *karado* said, "Stop the rain!" The *utkurudo* said, "Just like the night, so is the day." They continued to argue like this. The rain continued for fifteen days, and the city was flooded. The people were suffering. Then, the rain stopped, and the water receded. The city was destroyed. The *karado* and *utkurudo* were both blamed for the destruction. The city was destroyed in the thirteenth year after the *keval-nana* (omniscience) of Mahavira.
