Now the glorious Rishabhadeva, seeing his continent was Karmakshetra *i.e.*, the place for righteous duties lived in the house of a preceptor in an exemplary manner, obtained permission of his preceptors who had duly received their honours and then to exemplify (in himself) the duties of the house-holder's life, married Jayanti bestowed on him by Indra and observing karma (Dharma) of both descriptions, laid down by the Vedas and Smrities, had by her one hundred sons who were like unto him.
