In the Saṇakṣavarasukharūpa Śirīpadamandira, a beautiful temple, there lived a great soul named Śrīdhara, who was a resident of the Samantigirigaharipa, a celestial abode. He was blessed with the divine grace of the Lord, whose lotus feet he worshipped with utmost devotion. In his previous birth, he was a monkey, but due to his unwavering devotion to the Lord's feet, he was reborn as a human in the Kuru region. He enjoyed a life of happiness and attained liberation, becoming a female deity named Svayamprabha in the Nandāvarta vimāna. Her beauty was so captivating that even Kāmadeva, the god of love, could not resist her charm.
Another celestial being, known as Manohar, was born in a beautiful vimāna. He was a self-realized soul, loved by all the pandits, and had a radiant aura. In his previous birth, he was a tiger, but after his death, he was reborn as a celestial being with a beautiful form and radiant body.
There was also a deity named Prītankara, who was loved by all the three worlds. He was a Jina, a liberated soul, and had a beautiful, radiant body. In his previous birth, he was a boar, and he had dedicated his life to the pursuit of righteousness.
One day, Śrīdhara, the celestial being who had been a monkey in his previous birth, learned about the greatness of Prītankara. He was filled with devotion and went to pay his respects to him. As he entered the celestial assembly, it was as if a flash of lightning illuminated the sky. Śrīdhara bowed down before Prītankara and praised him, saying, "Oh, Lord, you are the supreme being! You saved me from the cycle of birth and death. In my previous birth, I was a monkey, but you guided me to become a human in the Kuru region. You are the embodiment of wisdom and compassion. You have purified my heart and inspired me to strive for liberation."
