PREVIOUS BIRTHS OF PARSVANATHA
377
roars, approaching by leaps, made an attack on the muni from the ground. The muni, knocked to the ground by the lion, free from desire for the body, made rejection of the four kinds of food, engaged in concentrated meditation. The muni made confession, asked forgiveness of all creatures; and continued in pious meditation, his heart unchanged even toward the lion.
Ninth incarnation as a god (310)
Torn by the lion, the muni died and became a god in the palace Mahaprabha in the tenth heaven, with a life-duration of twenty sägaras.
Ninth incarnation of Kamatha (310)
The lion, too, died and went to the fourth hell with a lifeduration of ten sāgaras. He was born in animal-births, experiencing many and various pains.
