63. After the completion of the eight day celebration in honour of the conquest of Prabhas Tirth, the divine Chakra Ratna came out of the weaponery and among the sound of musical instruments, it moved along the right bank of Sindhu river. It then went towards the abode of Sindhu Devi in the east.
King Bharat felt very much excited and pleased to see the divine Chakra Ratna going along the eastern bank of Sindhu river towards the abode of Sindhu Devi in the east. He established a great army camp, twelve yojan long and nine yojan wide at a place which was neither very far nor very near from the abode of Sindhu Devi. That camp looked like a grand city (king Bharat had ordered the divine builder to construct such a camp and report compliance. The builder started immediately and after completion reported compliance) king Bharat then keeping in his mind Sindhu Devi as his object, observed three day fast in Paushadhashala. On a seat of hay, he sat for three days continuously concentrating on Sindhu Devi in his mind.
As a result of this austerity of king Bharat, the seat of Sindhi Devi trembled. Seeing it, Sindhu Devi with her avadhi jnana, found that Bharat is observing austerities and concentrating on her. The following thought then arose in her mind
In Bharat continent of Jambu-dveep, Chakravarti king named Bharat has taken birth. It has been the accepted custom for Sindhu Devi in the past, present and future that as an ancient tradition, the Devi offers a gift to him. So I (Sindhu Devi) should also go and make an offering. She then came to king Bharat with 1,008 pots, various types of precious stones, gold, two seats of gold studded with jewels, Katak, Trutit and many other ornaments and said
'O the beloved of gods! You have conquered Bharat continent. I am your obedient servant residing in your kingdom. You please accept the gift of 1,008 jewel-studded pots, various precious stones, gold and the two gold thrones studded with jewels and sketches, Katak, ornaments and the like as an offering from me (as in Sutra 58). Further description is the same as in Sutra 58 (Then king Bharat accepted the gifts, honoured Sindhu Devi and then allowed her to go).
