Pushpika - Upang-10- Chapter-6 He studied eleven Angas. He led ascetic life for many years and took the ultimate vow (sallekhana) of one month duration. Avoiding sixty meals he embraced meditational death after doing pratikraman (critical review) at the moment of his death. He reincarnated in Manibhadra Viman (celestial vehicle). His life-span is two Sagaropam (a metaphoric unit of time). In the end, descending from the divine dimension, he will be born in the Mahavideh area to become a Siddha (liberated soul)."

The life-span of each of these in Saudharma Kalp is two Sagaropam (a metaphoric unit of time). The names of their vimans are same as their own names. The only exception is that in earlier birth Datt was born in Chandana city, Shiva in Mithila city, Bala in Hastinapur city, and Anadrit in Kakandi city. The names of the chaityas of these cities should be taken from the Sangrahani Gatha (collective verse which is not availablein the text).
