Vipak Shrut-Ang-11- Shrut Skandh-1, Chapter-9

The marriage ritual of prince Pushyanandi and Devadatta was ceremoniously performed with all grandeur, music and dance, rich gifts (dresses and ornaments) and exchange of greetings. After the marriage ceremony, king Vaishramanadatt liberally offered food and gifts (dresses, perfumes, garlands, ornaments etc.) to Devadatta's parents and their family members, relatives and friends and bade them farewell.

Then, prince Pushyanandi along with merchant's daughter Devadatta passed his time seeing, listening to, and enjoying sweet music of a variety of musical instruments including drums, thirty-two kinds of dramas, other such performances and all other human comforts and pleasures in his exclusive palace.

After some time, king Vaishramanadatt died. On his death, grief-stricken Pushyanandi performed his last rites and other formal rituals with state honor. After the mourning, Pushyanandi ascended the throne and became the king.

King Pushyanandi was greatly devoted to his mother Shridevi. Every morning, he would go to her, wherever she was, and touch her feet. He would then get her body massaged with shatpaak and sahasrapaak medicated and perfumed oils and pastes, and provide her comfort and relaxation through four types of body-massage. After that, he would get her body cleansed by applying and rubbing perfumed powders, and let her bathe with three kinds of water - lukewarm, cold, and fragrant. He would offer her enough food of four kinds and then take his own bath and food.

Once around midnight, Devadatta, engrossed in family problems, thought of killing Shridevi to fully enjoy human comforts and conjugal pleasures with King Pushyanandi. Availing the opportunity when Shridevi was sleeping alone and in solitude, Devadatta went to the kitchen, picked up a red-hot iron rod, and thrust it into Shridevi's anus, causing her a terrible, pathetic death.
