Some time later king Sunand appointed young Gotras at the post of Kootagraha. Gotras (like his father) was also by nature irreligious, derived pleasure in sinful deeds.
Then every night that Gotras trapper would leave his house alone dressed in strong armour like a soldier and equipped with a bow, arrows, and a sword. He would come to the Cow-shed and cut off the body-parts of some cows and other cattle. Doing that he would bring these parts home. He would then spend his time enjoying consuming these pieces of beef, duly cooked various ways, with a variety of wines.
Considering this kind of cruel acts to be his duty, giving importance to, being well versed in, and being engrossed in such deeds, that Gotras Kootagraha continued to accumulate intense bad karmas. Completing his life span of five hundred years, he died in anxiety and misery and took rebirth as an infernal being in the second hell having a maximum life span of three Sagaropam.
[15] Meaning- Subhadra, the wife of Vijayamitra Sarthavaha (a resident of that Vanijyagram), was a jatunandika (a woman whose offspring die at birth). On leaving the second hell, the soul of that Gotras K'ootagraha was conceived as a son in the womb of Subhadra, the wife of Vijayamitra Sarthavaha in Vanijyagram. On completion of nine months Subhadra Sarthavahi gave birth to a son.
Subhadra Sarthavahi got the newborn thrown on a heap of trash and then got it back. After that she fed, protected and gradually brought up the child. The parents performed ritual ceremonies, including distribution of gifts, connected with the birth of a son. They performed the ritual adorational beholding of the sun and the moon with great fanfare. When eleven days passed, on the twelfth day they performed the naming ceremony—"When this son of ours was born he was thrown on a heap of trash, as such, he should be popularly known by the name Ujjhitak' (the discarded one)."
