Once, Dharmaghoṣa Muni, a disciple of Tirthankara Vimalaṇāth, came to Hastinapur. Mahabal became detached after listening to the teachings. He became a Shraman, a monk, after taking initiation from Dharmaghoṣa Muni.
Mahabal Muni studied the 14 previous births. He performed various types of austerities, after observing the Shraman paryay for 12 years, he became a god in the Brahma Lok Kalpa in due course of time.
(10) Meghakumar
He was the son of Magadha Emperor Shrenik and Dharini Devi, who had taken initiation from Bhagwan Mahavira.
Once, Bhagwan Mahavira came to the Gunashila garden of Rajgriha. Meghakumar also listened to the teachings. He took initiation from Bhagwan after taking permission from his parents.
On the day he took initiation, that very night, Megha Muni became anxious and restless due to the movement of the monks, the dust from their feet and the bumping of their feet.
Bhagwan gave him teachings on patience in restraint, reminding him of his past lives, due to which Megha Muni became stable in restraint.
He performed a one-month Sanlekhana. He was born in the form of a god in the Sarvarthasiddha aeroplane. He will become a Siddha from Mahavidehavas.
