"The snake, having been instructed by the merchant, thought, 'I will make this merchant suffer.' He then handed the snake over to Suketa for his purpose. Suketa did as he thought. He made the snake do as he wished. He commanded the snake to climb up and down the pillar, walk around, and fall to the ground. The snake, having been given the command, did all the tasks. When all the tasks were completed, the snake asked for a command. The merchant said, 'Bring a stone pillar and place it in such a way that the snake looks like a sage in meditation. Let him spend his days and nights in this way. Now, bring it to the courtyard of my house and you will become a great monkey.' The snake said, 'Friend, please release me. Tie a chain of humility around the neck of your opponent and, without any deceit, climb up and down the pillar and speak to him.' Then, he gave up and bowed to Suketa, requesting him to spend his days as a human. He said, 'When you start doing this regularly, I will give you another snake. What can I say about your courage! You are great in both wisdom and wealth. I will give you work.'
"Son, please release the snake." Hearing this, Suketa released the snake. Then, the venomous snake, laughing, immediately brought the pillar, took the form of a monkey, tied himself to it, and stood there. After seeing the sunset one day, he gave his house to his son and served the feet of his guru, Gunadhar. Thus, he took up penance. And, with no envy, he bowed to the fearless, virtuous Arya and his wife."
