196 Padmapurana Then, when those jewels appeared, at that very moment, due to the rise of good karma, Harishena, the tenth Chakravarti, became famous for his great rise. || 388 || Even though he was adorned with the supreme Lakshmi marked by the Chakra jewel, he considered himself as insignificant as a blade of grass, devoid of pride. || 389 || Then, leading his army, which stretched for twelve yojanas, he humbled all his enemies and reached the hermitage of the ascetics. || 390 || When the ascetics realized that this was the same person they had expelled from the hermitage, they were terrified. Finally, holding fruits in their hands, they offered him Arghya and honored him with words filled with blessings. || 391 || Shatamanyu's son, Janamejaya, and his mother, Nagavati, were pleased and offered their daughter to him. || 392 || Then, according to the rituals, their auspicious wedding took place. Obtaining this daughter, the king Harishena considered it his rebirth. || 393 || Then, adorned with the Lakshmi of the Chakravarti, he came to the city of Kampilya. Thirty-two thousand crowned kings accompanied him. || 394 || With his head bowed, adorned with a crown studded with a cluster of gems, and with folded hands, he respectfully prostrated at his mother's feet. || 395 || Sumali says to Dasanana, "O Dasanana! At that time, seeing such a son, Vaprā was overwhelmed with joy. She could not contain herself, and her eyes filled with tears of joy." || 396 || Then, he drove his magnificent chariots, shining like the sun, through the city of Kampilya, thus fulfilling his mother's desire. || 397 || This act brought great joy to the monks and the Shravakas, and many people embraced the Jina Dharma. || 398 || The numerous, multi-colored, tall Jinalayas, which adorn the earth, mountains, confluence of rivers, cities, and villages, were all built by him. || 399 || After ruling for a long time, the noble-hearted Harishena renounced the world and, through intense penance, attained the peak of the three worlds, the Siddhalaya. || 400 || Hearing the story of Harishena Chakravarti, Dasanana was filled with wonder. Then, after paying homage to the Jina, he continued on his journey. || 401 || 1. Madanavalyā : M. 2. Vaivāha - M.
