148. [2] At that time, Shakra the ruling god of first heaven thought as under 'In Jambu island, Tirthankar has taken birth. It is an age-long tradition of Shakra, the master of heaven in the past, at present and in future that they celebrate the birth of the Tirthankar. So, I should also go and make arrangements for celebration of this occasion of the birth of the Tirthankar.
Shakra, the ruler of heaven thought in this manner and decided to si act accordingly. Thereafter, he called god Harinegameshi, the army chief of celestial beings and ordered—'O beloved of gods ! You immediately make a proclamation by ringing the Sughosha bell three times whose sound is sweet and reaches upto one yojan like the roaring sound of clouds and make an announcement in loud voice in the Sudharma assembly that these are the orders of Shakra, the ruler of heaven that he is going to Jambu island to celebrate the birth of the Tirthankar. As such you all should present yourself soon before Shakrendra along with all types of your wealth, splendour, strength, grandeur, dramatic parties, caring little for any obstacles that you come across. You should decorate
yourself with all types of flowers, fragrant substances, garlands, i ornaments and attend making divine sound and divine music in your \ Vimans (divine vehicles) along with your families.
The god Harinegameshi felt happy to receive these orders. He humbly accepted the command and came out from there. He then came to the Sudharma assembly hall and reached near Sughosha bell whose solemn sweet sound reaches a distances of one yojan like the roaring sound of clouds. He then rang the bell three times. At the sound of the bell, 31,99,999 bells in 31,99,999 celestial vehicles of Saudharma region started ringing. Their sound reached the places and remote regions of the divine vehicles and then entire area was filled with the sound of the bells.
