pregnant, that I may enjoy rainy season but it was not according to time, because at that time summer was prevailing. For fulfilling the intense desire of pregnant Dhāriņi, Abhaya Kumāra propiliated a god who was residing in Saudharma heaven, but was friend of his (Abhaya Kumāra's) former life. Method of propiliation is thus-Going to oratory (paușadhaśālā) accepted three days' fast penance, practising full celibacy done pausadha (a special vow), putting off all kinds of ornaments, spread a pallet-bed of grass. With eight meals fast putting mind in Hariņagameși god called him by heart. At the last day of three days' fast, the seat of god moved. By clairvoyance he became aware of the fact, then he came with fast speed and presented himself staying in sky, i.e., not touching the ground or remaining four fingers above from the surface of earth.
सूत्र १९:
तए णं से हरिणेगमेसी देवे कण्हं वासुदेवं एवं वयासी-होहिइ णं देवाणुप्पिया ! तव देवलोयचुए सहोदरे कणीयसे भाउए ! से णं उम्मुक्कबालभावे जाव जोव्वणगमणुप्पत्ते अरहओ अरिट्ठणेमिस्स अंतियं मुण्डे जाव पव्वइस्सइ। कण्हं वासुदेवं दोच्चंपि तच्चंपि एवं वयइ, वइत्ता जामेव दिसं पाउन्भूए तामेव दिसं पडिगए।
सूत्र १९:
तदनन्तर वह हरिणैगमेषी देव श्रीकृष्ण वासुदेव से इस प्रकार बोला-हे देवानुप्रिय ! देवलोक का एक देव वहां की आयुष्य पूर्ण होने पर देवलोक से च्युत होकर आपके सहोदर छोटे भाई के रूप में जन्म लेगा और इस प्रकार आपका मनोरथ अवश्य पूर्ण जायेगा। परन्तु वह बाल्यकाल बीतने पर युवावस्था प्राप्त होने पर भगवान श्री अरिष्टनेमि के पास मुण्डित होकर श्रमण दीक्षा ग्रहण कर लेगा । उस देव ने श्रीकृष्ण वासुदेव को दूसरी बार, तीसरी बार भी यही बात कही और कहने के पश्चात् जिस दिशा की ओर से आया था उसी दिशा की ओर लौट गया।
