was busy in watching at Nemikumār. At the same time right eye of Rājimati throbbed. She became confounded that this is bad omen and something awful will definitely happen.
On this side Nemikumār's marriage procession was proceeding ahead. Nemikumār heard shrill yowl of animals. He asked charioteer about the same. He immediately ordered charioteer to take reverse.
All were flabbergasted ... Nemikumār was going back... His chariot was returning... King Samudravijay etc. dashārho, Shivādevi etc. tried a lot to convince Nemikumār but... the person who is renunciatory and desperate for initiation, how will that person agree for marriage? God returned; it was like that he came just for reminding Rājimati about last eight births' relationships.
Lokāntik deities requested God to establish sacrament and God started 'Varsidān'. After giving donation for one year God sitting in 'Uttarkuru' palanquin, came to Sahastrāmra forest at Raivatāchal Mountain along with Shakra etc. Indra and Narendras. In Chitrā constellation, on sixth day of bright of Shrāvan month along with 1000 other kings God pursued initiation. He had two days fast. Immediately he attained Manparyavgyān.
On the next day he broke his fast at the place of Brahmin Vardutt. The deities rejoiced in sky with five divyas on this occasion.
