the example of a deer caught by lion and thus expressing that life is the morsel of death.
Completing god duration of heaven six soul born as human beings-(1) King, (2) queen, (3) purohita, (4) wife of purohita (5-6) two sons of purohita.
Seeing sages both the sons of purohita run away, hide themselves climbing on a tree. Looking at the peaceful face and pitiful behaviour of sages, the fear of both the brothers flew away. Coming down the tree they began to bow the sages (Couplets 1-5).
Expressing the duties of a brahmana, father said-first of all study Vedas, feed the brahmanas, marry with maidens then become sage. Sons replied-This world is encircled by death (cycle of Time), occlused by old age and death. As such what is the belief of life. (Couplets 9-23).
Watching the sons going away renouncing the home Bhrigu Purohita said to his wife Yasha-As a snake casting off the slough of his body, as fishes and geese breaking down the snare go along free and easy; so our sons are going free from worldly ties. Now what we will do living in the home like wingless birds and branchless tree (Couplets 29-37). Queen advised the King-Desires are infinite like limitless sky. If a man gets the whole wealth of three worlds even then his desires can never be satisfied. I am in this palace like a bird in cage. The vulture who has flesh with it, other meat-eater vultures pounce upon him and who has no flesh, none rushes upon him. Only for the worldly pleasures and merriments there are snatches and assaults. (Couplets 39-49).
Practiser of the most difficult great vow of celibacy, protected by ten condition to such a monk all gods, demons, gandharvas, rakshasas, kinnaras and monarchs bow with devotion (Couplet 10-13/16).
Sinful Sage One who accepts consecration boldly as a lion; but due to comfort-wishing he becomes coward like a jackal, sleeps eating and drinking according to his own will, accumulates clothes and vessels, gossips with the people-such indiscriminate, lustful of tastes called as sinful sage (Couplets 1-3).
King Sanjaya, the ruler of Kampilya Nagar, went out for hunting with his fourfold army. Chasing the frightened deers king approached the Keshar park. Watching the wounded deers near the meditated monk, King filled with fear-Probably, these deers are of this monk. King began to beg pardon for the offence he had done. (Couplets 1-7).
