5 The description about the opulence and power of transmutation of Samanik Devs (gods of same status), Trayastrinshak Devs (gods qualified to be priests or ministers), Lok-pals and Agramahishis (chief queens) of Dharanendra should be repeated as has been stated about Chamarendra. The difference being that the power of transmutation of all these is capable of pervading countable continents and seas. The same description should be repeated for (the overlords and subordinate gods of) all abode dwelling gods up to Stanit Kumars, Vanavyantars (interstitial gods) and Jyotishk (stellar gods). The only difference being that the information for all Indras of southern direction is sought by the second Gautam, ascetic Agnibhuti and that for all Indras of northern direction is sought by the third Gautam, ascetic Vayubhuti.

[Ans.] Gautam ! Naagkumarendra Dharan, the Indra (overlord) of Naag Kumars has great opulence... and so on up to... influence. He lives reigning over 4.4 million divine abodes, six thousand Samanik Devs (gods of same status), thirty three Trayastrinshak Devs (gods qualified to be priests or ministers), four Lok-pals, six Agramahishis (chief queens) with their retinue, three assemblies, seven armies, seven commanders and twenty four thousand guard-gods as well as numerous Naag Kumar gods and goddesses of the south direction. His capacity of transmutation (vikurvana) is as follows-He has the power to pervade (akirna) the whole of Jambudveep continent and countable continents and seas in this transverse world with numerous Naag Kumar gods and goddesses, exactly like a young man tightly holds the hand of a young woman or like the spokes of a wheel tightly held by its axle. However, the aforesaid
great power is theoretical. In practice he has never performed transmutation (to said extant), neither he does, nor will he do.
