The Sixty-Second Chapter
Seeing the love-sick Kankashri, the two dancers, taking her with them, went on the path of the winds. || 473 || Hearing this from the inner-palace officials, the lord of the Vidyadharas, Damitarin, sent his soldiers to bring them back. || 474 || Seeing the arrival of the soldiers, Balabhadra, the strong one, kept his younger brother and the girl far away and, returning himself, fought. || 475 || Fighting for a long time, Balabhadra sent those soldiers to Yama. Then, enraged, Damitarin ordered his other warriors, capable of fighting. || 476 || Like mountains sinking in the ocean, those warriors too, sank in the vast waters of Balabhadra's sword. Hearing this, Damitarin was astonished. || 477 || Calling his ministers, he said, "This effect cannot be of the dancers. What is the truth? Tell me."

But the discus, circumambulating him, stopped near his right shoulder. || 483 || Just as a yogi destroys death with the Dharmachakra, so too, the powerful future Narayana destroyed Damitarin with the same discus. || 484 || Thus, the battle ended. As the two brothers were going through the sky, their chariot suddenly stopped, as if fearing the transgression of the revered ones. || 485 || Thinking, "This chariot has been nailed by someone, or it is not going forward due to some other reason," they both looked around. Looking around, they saw the Samavasarana... || 486 ||
