## Āgama Sūtra 39, Cheda Sūtra-5, 'Mahānishītha'
**Study/Purpose/Sūtra Number**
Did Mahiyārī attain liberation by destroying all her karma with them? O Gautama! When she was searching for Mahiyārī to give her a vessel of rice, she was going thinking that she was the daughter of a Brahmin, then Sujnasrī was abducted in the middle. Then, after eating honey and milk, Sujnasrī asked where she was going? She was told another thing in Gokula that if you behave with me with humility, I will give you milk and food filled with jaggery and ghee every day as per your wish. When this was said, Sujnasrī went with Mahiyārī. The restless and tormented minds of Govinda Brāhmaṇa etc. did not even remember Sujnasrī in performing the afterlife rituals. After that, she used to give food like kheer filled with ghee and sugar as Mahiyārī had said.
Now, somehow, the time of the terrible famine of twelve years passed. The whole country became stable with prosperity. Now, at some time, Sujnasīva, having bought twenty precious, excellent gems like Sūryakānta, Chandrakānta etc. of the best caste, set out to return to his country. Due to the sorrow of travelling a long distance, the embodied one, while going on the same path, by the yoga of destiny, reached the Gokula of Mahiyārī, whose name is a sin to even utter, that sinful Sujnasīva reached there by a coincidence. Seeing Sujnasrī, who was superior in beauty and radiance to any woman in the three worlds, due to the fickleness of the senses, the pleasantness of the object, which is like the fruit of the poisonous Kimpaka, which brings infinite suffering, Sujnasīva, who had committed a great sin in the matter of Kāmadeva, who had conquered the entire three worlds, said to Sujnasrī:
"O girl! If your parents allow, I will marry you. I will also make your relatives free from poverty. Then I will make ornaments of gold for you for the entire duration of the universe. Tell this to your parents soon." After that, Sujnasrī, who was experiencing both joy and sorrow, told Mahiyārī this truth. Mahiyārī immediately came to Sujnasīva and said: "Oh! You said you would give gold for the entire duration of the universe for my daughter, show her the best gems." Mahiyārī said: "Give that gold, the child does not need a toy." Sujnasīva said: "Come, let's go to the city and check with the merchants there how effective this toy is."
After that, in the morning, they went to the city and showed the best pair of Chandrakānta and Sūryakānta gems to the king. The king called the gem examiner and said: "Show the value of this excellent gem." If the value is compared and examined, he is not able to tell its value. Then the king said: "Oh! disciple of Mānikya! Is there no man here who can examine the value of this gem?" Then, without getting the price, take the upper ten crore wealth. Then Sujnasīva said: "Whatever grace the king has, it is right. Another request is that we have a Gokula near this mountain, it has a grazing land of one yojana, make it tax-free from the side of the kingdom." The king said: "Okay, it will be so." In this way, making everyone free from poverty and tax-free Gokula, Sujnasīva, whose name is not worthy of utterance, married his daughter Sujnasrī.
Love arose between the two of them. They are spending their time with minds coloured by affection and love. In the meantime, seeing the sadhus who had come home going back without being fed, Sujnasrī cried out loud. Sujnasīva asked her: "O beloved! Why are you in such a sad state seeing the begging couple whom you have not seen before?" Then she said: "When I was my mistress, she used to give a lot of food and water to these sadhus and fill their bowls." After that, the happy mistress, filled with joy, bowed her head and prostrated at their feet. Seeing them, I remembered my mistress. Then she was asked again: "Who was your mistress?" Then, O Gautama! Sujnasrī, who was crying with a choked throat, unable to bear the sorrow, shed tears of anguish, and told the whole story till today. Then Sujnasīva, who was a great sinner, realised that this Sujnasrī was his own daughter.
