130. Sakrendra with his eyes full of tears and with an anjali in front of his forehead, requested śramana Bhagavâna Mahavira, saying-O Lord I Please prolong your life in this Samsåra only for a moment; so that Bhasma Rasî graha approaching your Janma-naksatra (Birth constellation ) during your lifetime may not cause trouble to your religious adherents. śramaga Bhagavâna Mahavira replied :-Really Sakral this has never happened before, that it is ever possible even for Jinéndras (Tirthaikaras ) to prolong the life-limit which is beiug terminated. The inevitable distress to the congregation will surely occur. But after you have duly punished the wicked king Kalki, and when the cruel Bhasma Rasi-graha has disappeared from your sanma nakşatra after two thousand years from its appearance i. e. the reign of Dharma-datta-son of Balki-enthroned by you. there will be an ever-increasing respect and hospitality for Sädhus and Sadhvis.

१३२. जं रयणि च ण समणे भगव महावीरे जाव सम्बदुक्खप्पहीणे तं रयणि च णं कुंथू अशुद्धही नाम समुप्पना, जा ठिया अचलमाणा छउमत्याणं निग्गंथाणं निग्गयीण य नो चक्खफासं हवमागच्छइ जा अठिा चळमाणा छउमत्याण निग्गथाणं य निग्गयाण निग्गथीण य चक्खुफासं इन्वयागच्छह ।।१३२॥
