The King on returning to his palace started a Vaiṣṇavasattra. (An almonry dedicated to Mahāviṣṇu). This almshouse was as comfortable and luxurious as the one once started by Brahmā in the temple of Gaya. Viṣṇudāsa on the other hand spent his life in a Viṣṇu temple leading a celibate life and observing rites pleasing to Viṣṇu.
