Vidyuddhvaja established himself in Amarāvatī, the capital city of Indra and lived there enjoying his life as Indra. In the meantime Candraketu, King of the Vidyādharas was sitting in Vāyuloka musing thus, “How long should we remain thus displaced from our positions! There is no waning of the power of Vidyuddhvaja. My friend Padmaśekhara, King of Gandharvas, has gone to Śivapura to perform penance. I do not know whether he has been blessed by god. Anyhow I will act after hearing from him.”
