EMPEROR VIKRAMADITYA
Some time later a divine image emerged from the Shiva Linga. Everyone looked agape. The king also witnessed the scene with astonishment
O king! Don't you see? This is the image of Vitarag Bhagavan Parshvanath. Both Shiva and Parshva are symbols of beatitude. Whoever has conquered
fondness and is detached is worth
worship.
Vikramaditya paid homage to the Avadhoot
O great yogi ! Please give your introduction. Why did you perform this
miracle ?
Acharya Siddhasen introduced himself. Overwhelmed with devotion Vikramaditya bowed at his feet.
O king ! Understand
the true form of the detached omniscient and worship him. That is the path to Shiva
(beatitude).
