## Chapter 112:
112
Adipurana 'Even though he was younger than his father, he was still beloved. Often, even when children are equal, there is a preference for one. ||206|| Seeing the love and enthusiasm of the people for his younger son, the father crowned Srivarma, ignoring his elder son, Jayavarman. ||207|| Feeling deeply hurt by his father's neglect, Jayavarman renounced the world and took up asceticism. He condemned his own sins and sought refuge in the presence of his own Guru, the Self-Illuminated One. ||208|| He was newly initiated, having not long received his vows, when he saw a celestial being named Maheendhar, ascending to the heavens with his retinue. Jayavarman, with his keen insight, understood that in his next birth, he would enjoy the pleasures of a great celestial being. ||209|| While he was contemplating this, a terrible dream emerged from a termite mound and stung him. He had died desiring pleasures, and therefore, he had become a powerful celestial being, enjoying the pleasures appropriate for such beings, which never satisfy. ||210|| Due to the karmic residue of his past life, he remained attached to these pleasures for a long time. However, upon hearing your words, he will soon become detached from them. ||211-212|| Last night, he saw in a dream that three wicked ministers, besides yourself, had forcibly thrown him into a deep mire. ||213|| Then, you, having rebuked those wicked ministers, rescued him from the mire, seated him on the throne, and crowned him. ||214|| In another dream, he saw a blazing flame, flickering like lightning, diminishing with each passing moment. He saw both these dreams at the end of last night. ||215|| Having seen these dreams so clearly, he is waiting for you. Therefore, go quickly and enlighten him. ||216|| Upon hearing about these two dreams from you, he will be greatly astonished, even before you ask him. He will be pleased and will undoubtedly accept all your words. ||217||
