1.29

"Whenever Śakra went to the Joyful Grove, he would enter the ponds to disport himself with the heavenly maidens. At that time, Yueyi became jealous and dispatched five yakṣas to go and inform her royal father: 'Right now Śakra no longer favors me, and disports himself with the maidens.' Hearing these words, her father became enraged and immediately mobilized the fourfold army to attack Śakra. Standing in the water of the great ocean, he squatted upon the summit of Mount Sumeru. His nine hundred and ninety-nine arms moved together all at once, shaking the City of Pleasing Vision and rattling Mount Sumeru, causing the waters of the four great oceans to surge at once. Śakra Devānām Indra was terrified and panic-stricken, not knowing where to turn.
