## The Forty-Fifth Chapter
177. ||
Adorning himself with all ornaments, and binding the garland of the three worlds, the Thousand-Eyed One, with joy, looked upon the earth for the sake of worldly fame. || 172 ||
173. ||
How did this lotus-like earth bloom at his birth? Because, from everywhere, the Lord, known as the "Maker," bestowed upon it the auspicious name "Chandra Prabha." || 173 ||
174. ||
The Lord of the Gods, Indra, performed the joyous play of "Anand Natak" for him. Then, bringing him back, he entrusted him to his parents, the rulers of the world. || 174 ||
175. ||
"Serve the Lord with all the things that are fit for enjoyment and enjoyment," thus instructing the Yaksha King, Indra went to his own abode. || 175 ||
176. ||
Even though the wise consider a woman to be a source of blame, this Lakshmana, who holds the Lord of the world, the benefactor of the world, is very virtuous, very pure. Thus, the gods praised her and attained great merit. The goddesses also accepted that "such a woman is the best." || 176-177 ||
178. ||
After the liberation of Lord Suparshvanath, when nine hundred crore sagaras had passed, Lord Chandra Prabha was born. His lifespan was also included in this interval. || 178 ||
179. ||
His lifespan was ten lakh purvas, his body was one hundred and fifty dhanushas tall, he was growing like the moon of the second fortnight, and the whole world praised him. || 179 ||
180. ||
"Oh Lord, come here," thus, out of curiosity, a goddess called out to him. He placed his palms, like lotuses, on her outstretched hands. At that time, his lotus-like face, with a smile that arose without any reason, looked very beautiful. Sometimes, he would stumble and place his foot on the earth adorned with jewels. || 180-181 ||
182. ||
Thus, with innocent and pure actions, befitting that stage, he spent his childhood and attained the stage of youth, desired by those who seek happiness. || 182 ||
183. ||
At that time, people there, out of curiosity, would say, "We believe that the Creator has made his body from nectar." || 183 ||
184. ||
His "dravya leshya," the radiance of his body, shone so brightly, surpassing the radiance of the full moon, as if the "bhava leshya," the radiance of his emotions, had come out due to the abundance of external objects. Meaning: His body was white, and his emotions were also white and radiant. || 184 ||
185. ||
His fame and radiance eclipsed the brilliance of the celestial beings. The land of enjoyment, the sun, was eclipsed by the rays of the moon. || 185 ||
