Seeing the one who practices the Arhant Dharma (Hiranyavarma), Priyadatta, with a body as soft as a Keli tree, took immediate renunciation at the feet of the Aryika, who is full of many peaceful and gentle qualities, and is worthy of being counted among the virtuous. Jayakumar's gaze was directed towards the mouth, where such a beautiful eye again tells the story that in that city, outside the cremation ground, the Yativara Hiranyavarma was seated with his hands outstretched. After the seven days of the pratima yoga were completed, the Muni addressed the assembly. The king, his family, and the city were in a state of commotion. The unwavering-minded, प्रभावती Aryika, who follows the Muni Charit, was situated in a Pratoli near the city at night, meditating on the Jina in her mind-lotus. It was here that the enemy merchant (Bhavadeva), who later became a cat, being a human, became the Kotwal of the city, and the Gaja-bara-gamini woman of the Nagaraseth came to him at night. He asked her, "O beautiful one, where were you for so long?"
The Kotwal replied,
"They were at the Muni's pratima yoga, and the entire city and our Seth paid homage to their feet." || 17 ||

The group of Shravakas, free from obstacles, the assembly of virtuous and glorious Aryikas, all praised the feet of the Yativara. We left them at the cremation ground. The one who was previously the householder of the Muninath, a river of wisdom and pure character, worthy of respect, who holds fast to her vows, stopped at the city gate as the sun was setting. Both of them had known the Jina Dharma in the form of a pigeon and a dove in the Seth's house. The cat found them in the forest and ate them.
