________________ God passed 23,750 years in bloom of life. After handling kingdom for 23,750 years, the bright wheel i.e. Chakraratna was developed in his armoury. God conquered six continents and became sovereign. God relinquished lordship of all the six continents and on request of Lokantik deities God began 'Varsidan'. Sitting in 'Vijayā' palanquin God came to Sahastramra forest. He had two days fast. Along with 1000 other kings God pursued initiation, in Krutikā constellation, on fifth day of dark half of Vaishakh (Chaitra) month. Immediately he attained Manparyavgyan. On the next day he broke his fast at the place of King Vyaghrasinh, in Chakrapur city. The deities rejoiced in sky with five divyas on this occasion. He wandered for sixteen years as Chhadmastha. He again came to Sahastramra forest at Hastinapur. He vowed for two days fast. He was meditating below Tilak tree. He attained pure Kevalgyan, in Krutika constellation, on third day of bright half of Vaishakh (Chaitra) month. The deities constructed place of sermons. He gave interesting lecture on how to clean the heart. He clarified the role of different circumstances and stages of heart. Listening to his lecture many great souls pursued initiation and many people became Shravak in real sense. Swaymbhu etc. 35 became ganadhars of God.
