## The Fifty-Seventh Chapter
Knowing this, he informed his father and, with his permission, offered the daughter to the prosperous Kumar, Jiwandhar, for a prosperous union. || 372 || Then, with appropriate love, he enjoyed the desired pleasure. There, the people constantly recounted the tales of his valor and good fortune. || 373 || But the wicked Kashtangarik king, unable to bear the humiliation of Jiwandhar's thwarting his elephant, || 374 || in anger, declared, "This Jiwandhar, a mere Vaishya, has insulted me by hindering my elephant. His duty is to buy and sell things like harad, amalaki, and shunthi. But he has abandoned his caste duties and, filled with pride, engages in activities fit for a prince. Therefore, quickly send this wicked fellow to the jaws of Yama." Thus, he commanded Chand Danda, the chief protector of the city. || 375-377 ||
Chand Danda, with his army ready, rushed towards Jiwandhar in anger. Jiwandhar, knowing this, also went to meet him with his friends, eager for battle. He defeated Chand Danda without himself being harmed. This further enraged Kashtangarik, who sent a large army. Seeing the army, Jiwandhar, with a compassionate heart, thought, "What is the benefit of killing these insignificant creatures? I will pacify this wicked Kashtangarik by some means." Thinking thus, he remembered his friend, Sudarshan Yaksha, and sought his help. || 378-380 ||
Knowing Jiwandhar's plight, Sudarshan Yaksha pacified everything. Then, with Jiwandhar's permission, he placed him on the elephant named Vijayagiri and took him to his own home. It is indeed the mark of a true friend to show one's own home. || 381-383 ||
Jiwandhar's companions and relatives, unaware of his actions, trembled like delicate leaves swaying in the wind, unable to control themselves. But Gandharvadatta, knowing the reason for Jiwandhar's absence, remained calm. "The Kumar is safe, so do not fear. He will soon return," she reassured everyone with her wisdom. || 384-386 ||
Jiwandhar, staying comfortably in the Yaksha's abode for a long time, conveyed his desire to fight through gestures. || 387 ||
