Śrutakevali Bhadrabāhu predicted during the reign of Chandragupta Maurya that there would be a terrible famine in Magadha for twelve years. To ensure the purity of Jaina asceticism, the Sangha decided to leave Magadba. A group of monks under the leadership of Višākhachārya went to South India. But Sthūlabhadra remained in Magadha with some monks. After the famine was over, Visāklāchārya with his disciples came back to Magadha and found that the pupils of Sthūlabhadra had developed an attachment to clothes. 101
Visākhācāry tried to convince them for observing Digambaratva but he could not succeed in his achievement as the Sthūlabhadra and his followers were not ready to live without clothes. Hence the schism was started in the Jaina Sangba. On the other hand, Bhadrabāhu, the teacher of Visakhacā. rya, with his prominent pupil Chandragupta Maurya (Muni Prabhácandra) 102 left Magadha and went to South India. According to Digambar tradition, he observed there Samādhimaraña on the Kalvpra mountain ( Sramana Velagola Inscriptions, of Saka sam. 522).108
