7. Siva King of Hatthināpura. His wife was Dhāriṇī(27). He handed over the kingdom to his son Sivabhadda and took to Disāpokkhiya asceticism. In course of time he obtained vibhaṅga clairvoyance and started believing in the existence of only seven continents and the same number of oceans. His wrong belief was later removed by Tithayara Mahāvīra who admitted him to his Order. At the end he obtained emancipation.¹
