Then those revered elders, knowing that the homeless ascetic Khaṃdaka had died, performed kāyotsarga on account of his final decease; having performed it, they took his bowl and robes; having taken them, they slowly, slowly descended from Mount Vipula; having descended, they went to where the Śramaṇa, the Lord Mahāvīra, was; having arrived, they paid homage and bowed down to the Śramaṇa, the Lord Mahāvīra; having paid homage and bowed down, they spoke thus:
“Truly, the disciple of the Beloved of the gods named Khaṃdaka, the homeless ascetic, noble by nature, calm by nature, having anger, conceit, deceit, and greed naturally diminished, endowed with gentleness and humility, restrained, and well-behaved—
he, permitted by the Beloved of the gods, having undertaken the five great vows by himself, having asked forgiveness of the monks and nuns, having slowly, slowly ascended Mount Vipula with us […] having emaciated himself through a one-month saṃlekhanā, having cut off sixty meals through fasting, having confessed and repented, having attained spiritual tranquility, died in due course. And these are his monastic requisites.”
“Venerable Sir!” said the revered Gautama; he paid homage and bowed down to the Śramaṇa, the Lord Mahāvīra; having paid homage and bowed down, he spoke thus: “Truly, the disciple of the Beloved of the gods named Khaṃdaka, the homeless ascetic, having died at the time of death, where has he gone? Where has he been reborn?”
“O Gautama!” The Śramaṇa, the Lord Mahāvīra, spoke thus to the revered Gautama: “Truly, Gautama, my disciple named Khaṃdaka, the homeless ascetic, noble by nature, calm by nature, having anger, conceit, deceit, and greed naturally diminished, endowed with gentleness and humility, restrained, and well-behaved—he, permitted by me, having undertaken the five great vows by himself […] having emaciated himself through a one-month saṃlekhanā, having cut off sixty meals through fasting, having confessed and repented, having attained spiritual tranquility, having died at the time of death, has been reborn as a deva in the Acyuta heaven.
There, some devas have a lifespan duration stated to be twenty-two sāgaropamas; there the deva Khaṃdaka too has a lifespan duration stated to be twenty-two sāgaropamas.”
“Venerable Sir, when that deva Khaṃdaka, upon the exhaustion of his lifespan, the exhaustion of his existence, and the exhaustion of his duration, departs immediately from that deva-world, where will he go? Where will he be reborn?”
“Gautama, in the Mahāvideha realm he will be perfected, enlightened, liberated, completely extinguished, and will put an end to all suffering.”
