    [For part I see Transl., Ser. 2, Am. Math. Soc. 164, 163-170 (1995; Zbl 0844.35052).] The following problem is considered: \[ {{u_t}\over\sqrt{1+| Du| ^2}}= \text{div}{{Du}\over\sqrt{1+| Du| ^2}}\qquad \text{in}\quad\Omega\times[0,\infty), \] \[ u= \varphi\quad\text{on }\partial\Omega\times[0,\infty),\qquad u= u_0\quad\text{in }\Omega\times\{0\}, \] where \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain, and \(\varphi=\varphi(x)\), \(u_0=u_0(x)\) are smooth functions. No conditions on the mean curvature of \(\partial\Omega\) are imposed. The aim of the paper is to show that weak solutions converge (as \(t\to\infty\)) to the unique weak solution of the corresponding stationary problem.
