Sramana Bhagavān Mahāvira
Being thus commissioned by Sakra, the king of gods and the highest among gods, Deva-Harinegamesi, the commander of the divine infantry, became elated and happy. His heart was expanded in great joy. He touched his head with fingers arranged on his folded palms and received the order with due humility saying, “As Your Majesty pleases." After this, having left the presence of Sakra, he descended in the north-east direction. Having descended, he spread, by dint of his magical powers, snares of hypnotism. (Soon,) distance became reduced like sticks and started moving out fast. Then he threw out the gross particles of jewels, such as vajra, vaidurya, lohitāksa, masāragalla hamsa-garva, pulaka, saugandhika, jyotirasa, (jytisvara), anjana anjana-pulaka, (rayana) jatarupa, subhaga, anka, sphatika and arista, like (insignificant) berries, retaining (only) subtle substance (of them).
