"The angel comes to the house of Rishavdutt, Brahmin and Devananda Brahmini in the city of Kundgram, Overseeing Lord Mahavira in the womb of Devananda, the Angel reverendly salutes him. Thereafter, he hypnotises Devananda and her family in to deep sleep 20 Then he proceeds to remove the infectious elements21 from the surrounding and introduces antiseptic elements22 all over. Then the Angel seeks symbolic permission, from the Lord in the womb to perform the transfer. Thereafter, he excises and penetrates Devananda's body and takes out the micro being in the embryo from Devananda's womb and holds it in the hollow of his palms.28 He then files to Khastriya colony of the Kundgram city and comes to the House of King Sidhartha aud Queen Trishala. There he hypnotises Trishala and her family into deep sleep, repeats the process of removing the infectious elements from the surrounding and introducing antiseptic elements all over. Then he takes out the micro being from Trishala's embryo and replaces it with Lord Mahavira's micro being in such a manner that it does not cause any pain to the mother. He then flies to Brahmin colony and replaces Trishala's embryo in Devananda's womb with the same care. The day this operation was performed was the 83rd day after the Lord descended in Devanda's womb."
