________________ Krishna struggled a lot but was unable to beat Nemikumār... Vasudev Krishna's mind flickered. "If Nemikumar wishes then he can triumph my kingdom of three continents. Who is the Vasudev, me or the Nemikumar? I have to do something to restrain his muscles. Else in future I will be a zero." Krishna was thinking and at the same time he heard the oracle... "Oh... Vasudev Krishna! Don't worry at all! Nemikumar is the twenty second tirthankar. He will pursue initiation in his bloom of life only." This consoled Krishna. However, he told his eight queens to convince Nemikumar for marriage. King Samudravijay and Shivadevi were also forcing Nemikumar for marriage. Many princesses were ready for marrying with him. Vasudev Krishna's eight queens Satyabhāmā, Rukmani, Susima, Padmavati, Gauri, Gāndhāri, Laxmanā and Jambvati compelled Nemikumar for playing with them in river. Nemikumar was uncommitted but, still to please them he joined. All the eight queens started explaining role of woman in the life and forced Nemikumar for marriage. Nemikumar kept silence. They thought, "Nemikumar is ready for marriage and hence, he is not answering. Silence means 'YES"" They announced this matter over the whole city.
