$ Elaboration Champa city : then and now-Detailed description of
Champa city is available in Aupapatik Sutra. According to that, the ancient Champa city was a grand and affluent city undefeated by enemies. It has a very long history going back to the hoary past. It was here that Chandan-bala, the daughter of King Dadhivahan was born. Benevolent Karna, the magnanimous Pandava, made this city the capital of his state Angadesh. The five auspicious events of the twelfth Tirthankar Shri Vaasupujya Swami took place in this very city. According to the biography
of Bhagavan Mahavir, after the death of his father king Shrenik it became 5 impossible for grief stricken Emperor Kunik to live in Rajagriha, the $ capital of Magadh empire. For this reason he constructed the new city of
Champa around a huge Champa tree in consultation with expert S architects. It was here that Acharya Shayyambhav initiated his infant son
Manak, brought forth from Rajagriha, and wrote Dashavaikalik Sutra for him. With the power of her righteousness Mahasati Subhadra, in order to
erase the blemish on her chastity, drew water from a well with a strainer iš tied to non-twined cotton thread and sprinkled on three closed gates of $ Champa city to open them. The fourth gate was kept closed. Later the
Hammir and Sultan of Samdani demolished this gate to acquire stone slabs and door-flanges when he was constructing the fort of Shankarpur in 1360 V. At present it is a small township and district called Champaran near modern Bhagalpur.
