The luxurious king, Sri Pal, was tormented by the scorching heat, like a thirsty deer in the desert. He was exhausted from running, his body burning with thirst. He reached the riverbank, hoping for relief, but found it dry.
A disguised maiden, Sukhavati, appeared and said, "You were sitting under the seven-leaved tree, amidst the chirping of birds, when you were deceived. Who tricked you?"
A Vidhyadhar approached and reassured the king, "Don't be afraid, I will bring you cool water." He left and saw a river flowing swiftly, but it was too far away. He returned and told the king, "You cannot reach your beautiful home, leave quickly."
The king was deceived by a mirage, just like a deer is tricked by a mirage in the desert.
