King Hemabrahma & Queen Bhamashre wish of having child
A childless woman feels incomplete, A child brings joy with his laughter. Even when he is bathed in dirt, he is still charming. A woman pines to hear the word 'Ma', she is ready to bear the unbearable Pangs of childbirth for the sake of her precious baby. King Hemabrahma and the queen Hemashree of Bhadravati's Kingdom had spend half their lives pining for a child.
The king seeing his sad and worried wife explained to her. "I find you very unhappy for the want of a child. This is surely due to some misdeed. But with auspicious deed this situation can be changed. You have read the bio-graphy of the eighth tirthankar Lord chandraprabhu. He was also born very late to his parents. It also could have been due to some misdeeds in the past life which was mollified by good deeds by now. At last the day came when the result of his past misdeeds ended. The king with his queen started for a forest safari (trip) They found vitragi Digambar muniraj deep in meditation on a rock. They prostrated before him and sat at his feet. Before they could say anything the muni read their thoughts and asked them to construct a Jain temple and offer a swarna kalash and the idols of 24 tirthankars. He also asked the king and the queen to write the IX th shloka of Bhaktamar stotra with saffron on a gold, silver or a copper plate then wash it with water and drink that water with faith and love, and their desire would be fulfilled. The king and the Queen accepted his advise faithfully and returned after prostrating before him. They did what was told to them. In the spring season when the nature was most beautiful, bees hummed on lotuses and the birds chirped on trees, on a basant Panchami day the queen conceived a child. After nine months a son was born to them.
With the grace of muniraj and their faith in Jain religion the fruits of the past life's misdeeds were wiped out. The whole atmosphere was joyous with shainai playing at the palace and the festival of lights was celebrated in the city, and the newborn was named Bhusan. Women have to suffer the misfortune of being childless due to past life's mistakes such as "you make me so unhappy ! you should have died ! It is better to be childless than giving birth to a person like you". This misfortune of childlessness can also happen to those women who are jealous of other women who are fruitful.
