This verse appears in Srimad-Bhagavatam (5.12.12). Jada Bharata herein tells King Rahugana how he attained the paramahamsa stage. Maharaja Rahugana, the King of Sindhu-sauvira, had asked Jada Bharata how he had attained the paramahamsa stage. The King had called him to carry his palanquin, but when the King heard from paramahamsa Jada Bharata about the supreme philosophy, he expressed surprise and asked Jada Bharata how he had attained such great liberation. At that time Jada Bharata informed the King how to become detached from material attraction.
