(Jambu Swami asked "Bhante ! What is the text and meaning of the second chapter as preached by Shraman Bhagavan Mahavir ?" Sudharma Swami replied-)
Jambu! During that period of time there was a city named Rishabhapur. It had a garden named Stupakarandak. In it was a temple of Dhanya Yaksh. That city was ruled by king Dhanaavaha. His queen was named Saraswati Devi. The dream of the queen, telling the king about the dream, birth of a son, growing of the child, education, maturing, marriage, dowry, and enjoying pleasures in lofty mansions, all these details should be read as those about Subahu Kumar (Chapter-1).
The only difference being that the name is Bhadranandi Kumar instead of Subahu Kumar and he was married to five hundred girls, chief among them being Shridevi. Bhagavan Mahavir arrived. Bhadranandi accepted Shravak Dharma (householder's code). On being asked by Gautam about his past birth, Bhagavan Mahavir replied
(In past birth) He was a prince named Vijaya in Pundarikini city in Mahavideh area. Vijaya gave alms donation to Tirthankar Yugabahu and as a consequence acquired Ayushya karma (life span determining karma) to be a human being. Completing his life span there, he has reincarnated as Bhadranandi. All these details should be read as those about Subahu Kumar... and so on up to... He will take rebirth in Mahavideh area and at last will become Siddha (perfect), Buddha (enlightened), Mukta (liberated) and attain nirvana ending all misery.
Conclusion should be read as before.
