The great Purana, the Kailasa mountain, was seen by the king, and he was filled with awe. He stationed his army nearby and set out to worship the Jina. ||12|| The great king, shining with brilliance, was followed by many kings, like the gods following the glorious Sudharma Indra. ||13|| Approaching the Kailasa mountain, whose splendor was like the autumn clouds, and which resembled the vast storehouse of the Jina's glory, the king was overjoyed. ||14|| The sound of the falling waterfalls seemed to call out to the gods, "Come, serve the Trijagatguru!" with reverence. ||15|| The trees on the banks, with their branches swaying in the wind, and their blooming flowers like gentle smiles, seemed to be dancing in joy. ||16|| The waterfalls cascading from the cliffs seemed to be offering water for the feet of the Jina, as if welcoming the throng of devotees. ||17|| The mountain, with its peaks adorned with clouds, and its waterfalls showering the surrounding forests, seemed to be quenching the thirst of the earth. ||18|| The mountain, with its summit reaching the heavens, and its peak holding back the clouds, seemed to be stopping the sun's journey. ||19|| In some places, Kinnaras were enjoying themselves, in others, Nagas were serving, and in others, Khacharas were playing, all adding to the beauty of the forests. ||20|| In some places, the mountain was adorned with crystals and opals, their blue hues blending with the sky, and casting a shadow on the celestial beings. ||21|| In some places, the mountain was adorned with green gems and crystals, their brilliance illuminating the sky like a rainbow. ||22|| The king, step by step, approached the Kailasa mountain. ||11|| After that, the king, seeing the Kailasa mountain, stationed his army nearby and set out to worship the Jina. ||12|| Just as the gods follow Sudharma Indra, adorned with their shining crowns, so too did many kings follow the great king Bharat, adorned with their shining crowns. ||13|| The king was overjoyed to see the Kailasa mountain, whose splendor was like the autumn clouds, and which resembled the vast storehouse of the Jina's glory. ||14|| The sound of the falling waterfalls seemed to call out to the gods, "Come, serve the Trijagatguru!" with reverence. ||15|| The trees on the banks, with their branches swaying in the wind, and their blooming flowers like gentle smiles, seemed to be dancing in joy. ||16|| The waterfalls cascading from the cliffs seemed to be offering water for the feet of the Jina, as if welcoming the throng of devotees. ||17|| The mountain, with its peaks adorned with clouds, and its waterfalls showering the surrounding forests, seemed to be quenching the thirst of the earth. ||18|| The mountain, with its summit reaching the heavens, and its peak holding back the clouds, seemed to be stopping the sun's journey. ||19|| In some places, Kinnaras were enjoying themselves, in others, Nagas were serving, and in others, Khacharas were playing, all adding to the beauty of the forests. ||20|| In some places, the mountain was adorned with crystals and opals, their blue hues blending with the sky, and casting a shadow on the celestial beings. ||21|| In some places, the mountain was adorned with green gems and crystals, their brilliance illuminating the sky like a rainbow. ||22||
