This should be understood from the Auppapatika Sutra. The son of Maharaja Vijay and the son of Shridevi was a Kumar named Ati Mukt who was very delicate.
At that time and at that time, Shraman Bhagwan Mahavira was wandering, purifying one village after another, and staying free from physical pain - the obstacle to restraint - pain, and staying in the Shrivan garden of the city of Polaspur.
At that time, at that time, Shraman Bhagwan Mahavira's eldest disciple, Indrabhuti, was constantly performing tapasya according to the Vyākhyāprajñapti, cultivating the soul with restraint and tapasya. On the day of the par, in the first pauri, he performs swadhyay, in the second pauri, he meditates, and in the third pauri, he writes the Mukhavastrika without physical haste, mental fickleness, anxiety, and curiosity. Then he writes the vessels and clothes. Then, after cleaning the vessels and taking the vessels, he came to where Shraman Bhagwan Mahavira was seated, bowed to the Bhagwan, and said this:
'O Bhagwan! Today, on the day of the parana of the Shashthabhakta, I want to go to the city of Polaspur to take alms according to the method of alms-giving in the high, low, and middle castes, with your permission.'
Shraman Bhagwan Mahavira said - Devanupriya! Do as you please, do not delay.
With the permission of the Bhagwan, Gautam Swami left from the Bhagwan's side, from the Shrivan garden. Leaving, he looked at the Yuga (Dhusra) proof land without physical haste and mental fickleness, and without anxiety and curiosity, and came to the city of Polaspur with Iryasamit. There, he began to wander in the high, low, and middle castes according to the method of alms-giving.
On the other hand, Ati Mukt Kumar, after bathing and adorning his body, left his house with many boys and girls, children, and young men and women, and came to the Indra-sthana, that is, the playground. There, he began to play with those children.
At that time, Bhagwan Gautam was wandering in the city of Polaspur, in the rich, poor, and middle castes, and was passing by that playground.
Discussion - The present Sutra presents the description of the sweet meeting or first meeting of Ati Mukt Kumar, the prince of Polaspur, and Gautam, the first Ganadhar of Shraman Bhagwan Mahavira.
In this, the word 'Daraihi Ya, Dimbhahi Ya, Kumarahi Ya' is used for those with whom Ati Mukt plays. The words Darak, Dimbhak, and Kumar all seem to be synonymous, but the Vrittikar has explained their different meanings as follows: Darak - ordinary child, good age, Dimbhak - young age, Kumar - unmarried.
The place of playing is called 'Indatthan'. It means a playground, where a thick pillar called Indrastambha is planted and children play.
