AJATSHATRU KUNIK
In Champa, Kunik organized a gorgeous victory ceremony. Rulers and commanders from all parts of the sub-continent took part in these ceremonies. Kunik announced with prideI am invincible. Who has such four pronged army? Who enjoys the
Victory to Chakravarti Emperor support of such powerful angels as Shakrendra and Chamarendra.
Ashok Chandra!! will soon launch a victory march and establish an empire over the six
continents of the world to become a chakravarti.
Kunik started preparing for his victory march. One day an attendant informed him
Sire! Shraman Bhagavan
Mahavir has arrived in the Purnabhadra Chaitya
in the city.
Next day, after the discourse, Kunik asked Bhagavan with joined palms
Bhante! To which realm the Chakravartis, who enjoy mundane pleasures all their life, go after
death?
Great! Bhagavan Mahavir has come. I will go to pay him
my homage.

Kunik! When they complete their life-span the Chakravartis are born LOL in the seventh hell.
