AJATSHATRU KUNIK
How the doors could be opened?
Sire! The guardian of this gate is a angel named Kritmal. Whenever a Chakravarti, on his victory march, arrives here the angel automatically opens
the gate.
Why does he not open
the gate for me? Is he sleeping? Does he not know
that Chakravarti Ashok Chandra is on his victory
march?
Kunik, in his anger, took a large mace in his hand and struck at the large gate. When he struck thrice he heard a voice
Who is this fool? Why has he come here to invite his
death?
I am Chakravarti Ashok Chandra. Come out and give me way otherwise
will break open this
gate.
