¶Ù³ó²¹°ù³¾²¹²õ¾±á¹ƒh²¹ (धरà¥à¤®à¤¸à¤¿à¤‚ह) is the name of an ancient king from Saumanasa, according to chapter 4.5 [dharmanÄtha-caritra] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triá¹£aṣṭiÅ›alÄkÄpuruá¹£acaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.

Accordingly:—“[...] On the thirteenth day of the bright half of MÄgha, in the constellation Puá¹£pa, in the afternoon, the Lord [i.e., DharmanÄtha] became a mendicant with a thousand kings, with a two-day fast. On the next day in the house of ¶Ù³ó²¹°ù³¾²¹²õ¾±á¹ƒh²¹ in Saumanasa, the Lord broke his fast with rice-pudding. The five divine things, the rain of treasure, etc, took place there and ¶Ù³ó²¹°ù³¾²¹²õ¾±á¹ƒh²¹ made a jeweled platform where the Master had stood. Indifferent to his own body, unstumbling like the wind, the Teacher of the World set out from that place to wander over the earthâ€�.

context information

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
