2. इन्द्र को भगवान महावीर के दर्शन
श्री महावीर के दर्शन के लिये चल पड़े इन्द्र ने कुन्द ग्राम के ब्राह्मण अग्रहार में बसी हुई देवानंद नामक बहमणि के गर्भ में उत्तर फल्गुनि नक्षत्र में, दिनप्रति दिन प्रवर्धमान हो रहे श्रमण भगवान महावीर को देखा और भक्ति के साथ विनम्र भाव से नत-मस्तक हो दण्डवत् प्रणाम किया।
2. INDRA IS BLESSED WITH THE SIGHT OF MAHAVIRA
Indra who thus set out for the Holy Darshan of Lord Mahavira saw with his divine sight that Mahavira, who had entered the womb of a Brahmin woman Devananda of the Colony of the High Born in the village of Kunda, with Uttara Phalguni as the auspicious presiding star of his entry into the womb, was growing unimpeded in divine atmosphere. Having been blessed with the sight of the foetal Mahavira thus, Indra saluted him with reverence and humility.
