________________ Shri Kunthunāth Swāmi At eastern videh of Jambudweep's Āvart continent, in Khadag city, the mighty King Sinhāvah was ruling. The religious matters were often discussed in the parliament. It was the hobby of the king to help weak people. Eventually, he pursued initiation from Achāryabhagwant Sanvarāchārya. He did Vishasthānak penance and constituted Tirthankar Nāmkarma. After peaceful death, in the next birth he became Mahardhik deity at Sarvārthsiddha heaven. After completing life at heaven he came to the womb of queen Shreedevi on the ninth day of dark half of Shrāvan (Ashād) month in Krutikā constellation with fourteen great dreams. Queen Shreedevi was the wife of mighty King Shoor ruling over Hastināpur city at Jambudweep's Bharatkshetra. The soul of Tirthankar came into the embryo of queen Shreedevi. Moreover, the lucky fetus had got fortune to become sovereign also. In Krutikā constellation, on fourteenth day of dark half of Vaishākh (Chaitra) month queen delivered golden coloured baby boy having blot of goat. 56 Dikkumāris and 64 Indras celebrated birth ceremony as per their convention. King Shoor also celebrated grand birth ceremony of his son. When God was in embryo mother dreamed heap of Kunthu (one type of precious stone) and hence, God was baptized as Kunthu.
