A Pundit standing there said
Arya, I have heard that in the Mahasen garden of Pavapuri, a large religious congregation is taking place. Nirgranth Shraman Mahavir is coming today to give his discourse. All the gods are
going there.
Shraman Mahavir is a
kshatriya prince. What does he know of religion?
Gods are going to listen
to his discourse?
And a messenger came running with the news
Arya, Shraman Mahavir has arrived in the Mahasen Garden. Thousands of
gods and goddesses have come there and are
paying homage.
car
Is it? Surprising! This charlatan has cast his spell even
over gods.
Somil said
Arya, see! Prominent
merchants and warriors of Rajagriha. in their chariots, and thousands of people on foot are moving in that direction like a
flowing river.
Mahapundit Agnibhuti said
Arya, this charlatan Shraman Mahavir will dull the brilliance of our yajna celebrations. Please
do something.
