________________ 586 impatient and doubted whether he will have Kévala Jnāna (Perfect Knowledge) during this life or not. Śramana Bhagavāna Mahāvira, who had gone to Rajagriha Nagara with the object of living there during the rainy season, which was drawing near, on seeing the mental disturbance of Ganadhara Mahārāja Indrabhuti Gautama, told him, after the assembly had dispersed, saying,-O Ɑautama! You have been adoring me for a very long time, O Gautama! Yor have followed me since a very long time. O Gautama! You have acted very agreeably with me. O Gautama! You have been rendering service to me for a long time. O Gautama ! You are bound with me by sincere devotion and affection *O Ɑautama ! There was a mutual relation during our previous bhava (existence) as gods and there is a relation in this bhava as human beings. There is no reason to be, thus, disappointed After death, we both of us, will be equal with the same motive and we shall live in the same Happy Bliss of Siddha Kṣétra (Abode for Liberated Souls) where there is no distinction between individuals. On hearing the above fore-telling of his Final Emancipation from the mouth of Śramana Bhagavana Mahavira himself, Gagadhara Mahārāja Indrabhūti Gautama became greatly satisfied. * रायगिहे जाव एवं वयासी - परिसा पडिगया गोयमादी समणे भगवं महाबीरे भगवं गोयमं आमंतेत्ता एवं वयासी - चिरसंसिद्धोऽसि मे गोयभा । चिरसंधुओऽसि मे गोयमा । चिरपरिचिओऽ सि मे गोयमा ! चिरजुसिओऽसि मे गोयमा ! चिरणुअगओऽसि मे गोयमा ! विराणुवंतिसि मे गोयमा ! अनंतरं देवलोए अनंतरं माणुस्सर भवे, किं परं मरणा कायस्स भेदा इओ चुता दोवि तुला एगडा अविसेससमणाणत्ता भविस्सामो || (सूत्रं ५२१) ॥ भ० श. १४ उ०७ [प्र. ६४६ ] Jain Education International For Private Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
