The 77th Tirthankara, after being a human in the Maheendra Kalpa, fell from there and spent countless years in the Narakas and the Trasa-sthavara yonis. || 537 || After wandering, he emerged from there and became a Brahmin named Sthavara. Then, in the fourth Kalpa, he became the deva Vishvanandi, and fell from there. || 538 || Then, he became the deva Tri-sprusht-vak in the Maha-shukra Kalpa, and fell from there into the seventh Naraka. From there, he became the deva Gaja-vidvisha. || 539 || From there, he became the deva Simha in the Adima Naraka, and became pure in his Dharma. Then, in the Saudharma Kalpa, he became the deva Simhaketu, the best of the devas. || 540 || Then, he became the king of the Vidyadharas named Kanakojjvala. Then, in the seventh Kalpa, he became the deva Harishena, and then the king. || 541 || Then, he became the deva Priyamitra in the Maha-shukra Kalpa, and then a Chakravarti. Then, in the Sahasrar Kalpa, he became the deva Surya-prabha. || 542 || From there, he became the king Nanda, born in the Pushpottara Vimana of the Achyuta Indra. Then, falling from there, he became the Jinesvara Vardhamana. || 543 || May the Lord, who has attained the five great auspiciousnesses and the supreme wealth of liberation, bestow all auspiciousness upon Gunabhadra and all those who are superior in qualities. || 544 ||
Thus, the assembly and the king of Magadha, Shrenika, were both filled with great joy, nourished by the nectar of the words of the Saraswati, the goddess of learning, adorned in the mouth of Gautama Swami, sweet with the taste of good stories and enjoyed with devotion. || 545 ||
I take you, O Sri Vardhamana, the Jina who is always increasing in wealth, on the path of praise. You, who have conquered even the last Tirthankara, have made the Dharma-tirtha vast even in this Kali Yuga. || 546 ||
