The city of Alaka, whose greatness is renowned and which is filled with people of good character from all the four varnas (Brahmana, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Shudra), adorned the head of King Vijaya like a beautiful and round tilak.
The king of Alaka was a Vidyadhara named Atibala, who destroyed the strength of his enemies and whose command was worn like a crown by all the Vidyadhara kings.
Atibala was a valiant warrior who achieved victory through Dharma (righteousness) and conquered his enemies. He defeated his powerful adversaries using the six qualities of diplomacy, war, strategy, position, refuge, and duality.
The king always associated with the elderly and had conquered his senses. Therefore, he easily uprooted and destroyed his enemies with his army.
Like an elephant, he was endowed with great prosperity, belonged to a noble lineage, and had long, radiant arms. Just as an elephant nourishes its dependents like bees with its abundant water from its trunk, the king sustained those who sought his refuge with his great generosity.
The rays of his shining teeth emanated from his mouth, and his eyebrows were slightly raised, making it seem as if he had conquered the moon adorned with moonlight.
