The Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra, Chapter 165
288. "By chance, in the midst of the desert, I heard of the beauty of your beloved wife, Priyamitra, from another country."
289. "Ratiṣeṇa and Rati, two celestial beings, desired to see her, adorned with fragrant oils, at the time of her bath."
290. "Having correctly understood Indra's words, and desiring to speak with her, they assumed the form of young women and sent word through a friend."
291. "Hearing from the friend that two wealthy young women, daughters of a merchant, wished to see her, Priyamitra joyfully said, 'Very well, let them stay.'"
292. "Having thus arranged for their stay, she called them and showed herself to them. Upon seeing her, the two celestial beings said, 'Her radiance is not as it was before.'"
293. "Hearing their words, Priyamitra looked at the king's face. He said to her, 'My dear, it is indeed so.'"
294. "The celestial beings then assumed their true forms and recounted their arrival, lamenting her extraordinary but impermanent beauty."
295. "Knowing that nothing in this world is imperishable, they worshipped Priyamitra with hearts detached, and departed for heaven, their radiance filling the horizons."
296. "The king comforted Priyamitra, saying, 'This entire world is a mixture of the permanent and the impermanent. Do not grieve in your heart.'"
297. "Enjoying his kingdom with his wives, King Megha-ratha experienced great joy. One day, he went to the beautiful garden called Manohara."
298. "There, he saw his father, the Tirthankara Dhanaratha, seated on a throne, surrounded by gods and demigods. With his entire family, he circumambulated the throne three times, paid homage, and, desiring the welfare of all beings, inquired about the practices of the Śrāvakas."
299. "It is fitting, for the actions of the virtuous are like the wish-fulfilling tree, always benefiting others."
300. "O Lord, you have previously divided into categories the eleven places of the Śrāvakas. Now, tell me about the seventh Anga, called Upāsakādhyayana, which describes the practices of the Śrāvakas, for the benefit of those who wish to do good."
301. "Thus, upon King Megha-ratha's request, Dhanaratha, the Tirthankara, who fulfilled the desires of those who sought his help, explained as follows."
302. "First, there are the practices of the womb, then the practices of initiation, and then other practices of action. Their number is also explained in accordance with the truth."
