## VipakShrut- Ang-11- ShrutSkandh-2, Chapter-1
**Meaning:** Shraman Bhagavan Mahavir became aware of Subahu Kumar's resolve. Wandering from one village to another, he arrived at the temple of Kritavanamalapriya Yaksh in Pushpakarandak garden in Hastishirsha city. Following the ascetic norms, he sought a suitable place of stay and commenced enkindling his soul with discipline and austerities.
Upon receiving news of Bhagavan's arrival, the people of the city and the king came to pay their homage. Subahu Kumar also came ceremoniously to Bhagavan (like Jamal). Bhagavan gave his sermon to the large gathering and Subahu Kumar. After which the king and the people dispersed.
Subahu Kumar listened to the sermon by Shraman Bhagavan Mahavir. While contemplating over it, he got detached and sought permission from his parents to get initiated as an ascetic, as Megh Kumar, King Shrenik's son, did. On getting permission, his pre-renouncing lustration was performed like that of Megh Kumar... and so on up to... He became an ascetic, observed the codes of Irya samiti (care of movement)... and so on up to... he became completely celibate.
He studied all the eleven Angas (canons) including Samayik from the senior ascetics of Shraman Bhagavan Mahavir's order. Enkindling his soul by observing numerous austerities including fasting for one, two, three, and more days, he immaculately followed the ascetic code for many years. In the end, he took the ultimate vow (sallekhana) of one month duration. At the conclusion of the month-long fast (avoiding sixty meals) at the destined moment of death, he embraced meditational death after doing critical review (pratikraman). He reincarnated as a god in the Saudharma kalp (a dimension of gods).
Completing the age, state, and life by ayukshaya (shedding the life span determining karma particles), bhavakshaya (shedding the divine state determining karma particles), and sthitikshaya (shedding the karma particles determining the extant of life span), the soul that was Subahu Kumar will abandon his divine body and reincarnate as a human being. He will get enlightened. Then after tonsuring his head, will get initiated as an ascetic by sthavirs (senior ascetics). Following the ascetic code for many years, he will embrace meditational death after doing critical review (pratikraman). He will reincarnate as a god in the Sanatkumar kalp (the third heaven).
From there he will again reincarnate as a human being. After getting initiated (etc.) he will reincarnate in the Mahashukra Devlok (divine dimension). Descending from there, he will again take birth as a human being and get initiated as before. Then he will reincarnate in the ninth Devlok called Anat. Completing the state and life there, he will again take birth as a human being and get initiated as before. Then he will reincarnate in the eleventh Devlok called Aran. Descending from there, he will once again reincarnate as a human being, get initiated and after death reincarnate in the Sarvarthsiddha Viman. Descending from there, the soul that is Subahu Kumar will at once take rebirth as a human being in one of the wealthy families in Mahavideh area. He will get initiated like Dridhapratijna Kumar and attain the status of a Siddha.
