The Sixtieth Chapter
127
The two brothers, Balabhadra and Narayana, became the rulers of the three divisions and experienced the sovereignty of the three divisions, just as the Sun and Moon experience the sovereignty of the celestial sphere. || 79 ||
At the end of his life, Narayana, the sixth, went to the sixth hell, and Balabhadra, the elder brother, was consumed by the fire of grief arising from his separation. || 80 ||
He was enlightened by the Jina, Soma Prabha, and with a joyful heart, he took initiation and finally ascended the क्षपक श्रेणी and attained liberation. || 81 ||
Narayana, the sixth, was born as King Vasushena in the city of Podanapura, then he performed austerities and became a god, the holder of the शुक्ललेश्या, then he was born as the ruler of the half-Bharata region, a destroyer of enemies, and was known as Narayana, the sixth, and then he was born in the seventh earth in the lower world. || 82 ||
The king, Chandrasasana, the wicked ruler of the Malaya region, wandered in delusion for a long time and became Madhusudana, and then he was submerged in the lower part of the ocean of existence. || 83 ||
Balabhadra was born as King Mahabhala in the city of Nandana, then he performed great austerities and became a god in the twelfth heaven, then he was born as Balabhadra, known as Su-Prabha, and he renounced all attachments and attained the supreme abode. || 84 ||
See, Su-Prabha and Narayana, the sixth, enjoyed the best pleasures of the kingdom together, but the first, Su-Prabha, attained liberation, and the second, Narayana, the sixth, went to hell. This is all due to the diversity of their actions and tendencies. || 85 ||
Thus ends the sixtieth chapter of the Trishattilakshana Mahapurana, composed by Bhagavadguna Bhadracharya, which describes the Puranas of Anantanatha Tirthankara, Su-Prabha Balabhadra, Narayana, the sixth, and Madhusudana.
