अथानन्तर पहले जिनका वर्णन किया जा चुका है ऐसे वे सर्वार्थसिद्धिके अहमिन्द्र स्वर्गसे अवतीर्ण होकर क्रमसे भगवान् वृषभदेवको यशस्वती देवीमें नीचे लिखे हुए पुत्र उत्पन्न हुए ॥१॥ भगवान् वृषभदेवकी वजनाभि पर्यायमें जो पीठ नामका भाई था वह अब वृषभसेन नामका भरतका छोटा भाई हुआ। जो राजश्रेष्ठीका जीव महापीठ था वह अनन्तविजय नामका वृषभसेनका छोटा भाई हुआ ॥२॥ जो विजय नामका व्याघ्रका जीव था वह अनन्त-विजयसे छोटा अनन्तवीर्य नामका पुत्र हुआ, जो वैजयन्त नामका शूकरका जीव था वह अनन्तवीर्यका छोटा भाई अच्युत हुआ, जो वानरका जीव जयन्त था वह अच्युतसे छोटा वीर नामका भाई हुआ और जो नेवलाका जीव अपराजित था, वह वीरसे छोटा वरवीर हुआ ॥३॥ इस प्रकार भगवान् वृषभदेवके यशस्वती महादेवीसे भरतके पीछे जन्म लेनेवाले निन्यानबे पुत्र हुए, वे सभी पुत्र चरमशरीरी तथा बड़े प्रतापी थे।॥४॥ तदनन्तर जिस प्रकार शुक्लपक्ष पश्चिम दिशामें चन्द्रमाकी निर्मल कलाको उत्पन्न (प्रकट) करता है उसी प्रकार ब्रह्मा-भगवान् आदिनाथने यशस्वती नामक महादेवीमें ब्राह्मी नामकी पुत्री उत्पन्न को ॥५॥ आनन्द पुरोहितका जीव जो पहले महाबाहु था और फिर सर्वार्थसिद्धिमें अहमिन्द्र हुआ था, वह वहाँसे च्युत होकर भगवान् वृषभदेवकी द्वितीय पत्नी सुनन्दाके देवके समान बाहुबली नामका पुत्र हुआ।६।। वनजंघ पर्याय में भगवान् वृषभदेवकी जो अनुन्धरी नामकी बहन थी वह अब इन्हीं वृषभदेवकी सुनन्दा नामक देवीसे अत्यन्त सुन्दरी सुन्दरी नामकी पुत्री हुई ॥७॥ सुन्दरी पुत्री और बाहुबली पुत्रको पाकर सुनन्दा महारानी ऐसी सुशोभित हुई थी जिस प्रकार कि पूर्व दिशा प्रभाके साथ-साथ सूर्यको पाकर सुशोभित होती है ।।८।। समस्त जीवोंको मान्य तथा सर्वश्रेष्ठ रूपसम्पदाको धारण करनेवाला बलवान् युवा बाहुबली उस कालके चौबीस कामदेवोंमें-से पहला कामदेव हुआ था॥९॥ उस बाहुबलीका जैसारूप था वैसा अन्य कहीं नहीं दिखाई देता था, सो ठीक ही है उत्तम आभूषण

## The Sixteenth Chapter

Now, in due course, the glorious sons of the Creator, who were formerly the Indra of the heavens, were born to Yashaviti.

1. Pitha, who was formerly Vrishamasena, became the younger brother of Bharata. His younger brother, who was formerly Maha-Pitha, became Ananta-Vijay.
2. Vijay, who was formerly Ananta-Virya, became the younger brother of Ananta-Vijay. Vajayanta, who was formerly Achyuta, became the younger brother of Ananta-Virya. Vir, who was formerly Jayanta, became the younger brother of Achyuta. And Aparajita, who was formerly a mongoose, became the younger brother of Vir.
3. Thus, there were ninety-nine sons born to Vrishabha-deva from Yashaviti, after Bharata. All these sons were of the highest order of beings and possessed great strength.
4. Then, just as the bright crescent moon appears in the western sky, Brahma, the first Tirthankara, was born to Yashaviti as her daughter, Brahmi.
5. The being who was formerly Maha-bahu and then became the Indra of Sarvartha-siddhi, was born as the son of Vrishabha-deva and his second wife, Sunanda, and was named Bahubali, like the gods.
6. Anundari, who was formerly the sister of Vrishabha-deva in the Vanajangha realm, was born as the daughter of Vrishabha-deva and Sunanda, and was named Sundari, who was extremely beautiful.
7. Sunanda, the queen, was adorned with her daughter, Sundari, and her son, Bahubali, just as the eastern sky is adorned with the sun and its rays.
8. At that time, the powerful young Bahubali, who possessed the most excellent beauty, became the first of the twenty-four Kamadevas.
9. Such beauty as Bahubali's was not seen anywhere else. Just as ornaments are not seen anywhere else but on a Kalpa-druma, so too, such beauty was not seen anywhere else.
