God Ajitnäth sitting in Suprabha palanquin reached Sahastramra forest along with thousands of deities and men. God had two days fasts and forsook everything. Under Saptachhad tree God vowed for 'Sarva Virti'. Immediately he attained Manparyavgyan. Next day God came to the place of King Brahmadutta and broke his fasts with kheer. The deities rejoiced in sky with five divyas on this
occasion.
God wandered as chhadmastha for twelve years. On eleventh day of bright half of Paush month in Rohini constellation he attained Kevalgyan. The deities constructed place of sermons. God established sacrament and began his lecture. His subject was rotation of lives in four states (Heaven, human beings, birds, fly, animals and hell i.e. mokshagati, mannushyagati, tiryanchgati and narakgati) After the renunciatory lecture Sinhsen etc. ninety five princes pursued initiation and God entitled them as 'Gaṇadhar'.
The chaturmukhyaksha Mahāyaksha having vehicle of elephant was the adhishthāyakdev and golden coloured Ajitbālā was the adhishthāyakādevi in administration of God Ajitnath.
