## The Thirty-Seventh Chapter
The victorious Bharateshwara, having conquered all directions, entered the city of Saketa with great splendor. [1]
There, the great kings performed his coronation with joy, saying, "May your victory-born Lakshmi increase and become renowned throughout the world." [2]
The citizens, along with the palace priests, performed his coronation, saying, "May you, O Lord, be long-lived and rule the earth." [3]
During the coronation, the kings performed all the rituals, like collecting water from sacred places, as was done during the coronation of the great Vrishabhadeva. [4]
"Thus, the king was coronated with the same rituals and adorned with the same ornaments. The same victory cries were raised by the warrior kings. The same respect was shown to all the kings, along with their families, and they were made fearless. The same way, the people were satisfied with great wealth and gifts. The same great auspicious drums, whose sounds had silenced the roar of the ocean, were played. The same joyous great drums were played repeatedly. The same musical rituals were begun in the pleasure pavilion. The same radiance that was seen on Vrishabhadeva, who was coronated by the Indras on Mount Meru, was seen on Bharateshwara, who was coronated by the kings. The goddesses Ganga and Sindhu, the presiding deities of the rivers Ganga and Sindhu, came and performed his coronation with sacred water, filled with jewels and grains. The king, having been coronated, sat on the royal throne." [5-10]
The many celestial beings, adorned with their jeweled crowns, bowed down to him. [11]
