O Shivaa! He had friendship with Indra. He also had friendship with Yama, Varuna and
Kubera.
O Goddess! He had (good) sons, he possessed wealth, he had (good) subjects, was devoted to
dharma and was of virtuous conduct. While he was ruling this way, all obstructions related
to his kingdom were subdued.
He had two wives named Kamala and Kirana. Both were of virtuous conduct, had attractive
looks and were devoted to their husband.
The elder wife Kamala bore two sons in the same year, the same month, the same tithi, vaara
etc, in the same constellation, in the same yoga, in the same lagna and at the same time. 1
Even though the two princes were born at the same time they were different in terms of
appearances. There were respectively dark and fair, lean and obese, short and tall. One was
extremely virtuous, charitable, pious and veracious while the other was sinful, extremely
short tempered and devoted to slandering and falsehood.
Seeing those two sons and the astonishing ways of God, the king was very much surprised
and was depressed with worry.
