Remaining account is similar to that of Jali Kumar and that in the end he attained salvation.
Thus, all the thirteen princes were residents' of Rajagriha. Their parents were king Shrenik and queen Dharini. All the thirteen led ascetic life for sixteen years each. After completing their life-span, Deerghsen and Mahasen were born in Vijay Viman, Lashtdant andGoodhdant in Vaijayant Viman, Shuddhadant and Halla in Jayant Viman, Drum and Drumsen in Aparajit Viman andthe remaining five namely Mahadrumsen and others in Sarvarth Siddh Viman.
Jambu! This is the meaning of the entire second Varg asnarrated by Bhagavan Mahavir." In both Vargs, the period of Samlekhana is one month each.
(It is worth mentioning that all the twenty three monks mentioned in the two Vargs had left food and remained motionless like a cut-off branch of a tree for a period of one month each. After completing their life-span, they were re born in Anuttar Vimans.)
Commentary-- Here the life-sketch of the thirteen monks has been described in a very concise form. The description has been concluded by referring to the description of Megh Kumar in Jnata Dharmakatha Sutra and that their account is similar to that of Megh Kumar. So for detailed study, kindly see first chapter of Jnata Dharmakatha Sutra.
In the first Varg, the mother of seven monks is Dharini; here also the mother of thirteen monks is Dharini. In Jnata Dharmakatha, the mother of Megh Kumar is Dharini. It is therefore, worth a study whether twenty one wives of king Shrentik were of the same name Dharini or Dharni was not the name of the mother but denotes their quality, i.e., one who bears is Dharini. In other words, it may be that the mothers were different but a common name Dharini has been mentioned. This is a matter for detailed study and research.

Gist of the Chapter:
In the third Varg (Part) of Anuttaraupapatik-dasha there is description of ten great ascetics engaged in self-realization. The first chapter-Dhanya Kumar' gives a detailed account of ascetic Dhanya.
There is a detailed description of entirely comfortable, well-to-do family life of Dhanya Kumar. This narration indicates how a young man brought up in extremely great comforts, in a rich family, enjoying all the worldly comforts and luxuries, became spiritually awakened by just one spiritual discourse of Bhagavan Mahavir. He immediately discarded all the worldly comforts and the family life and accepted
