Next day minister Buddhisagar came to the yogi along with the council of ministers. All the ministers requested the yogi to save Avanti. The yogi said
I have two conditions
1. I will occupy the throne dressed as a yogi. 2. The day Vikramaditya is found
I will hand over the kingdom to him and go.

We agree.
During the day Avadhoot Yogi attended the court, listened to the problems of the people, discussed with ministers and administered justice. In the evening he returned to his hut to sleep. One day the ministers jointly requested
Alright, as you wish.
Yogiraj! It doesn't
look nice that the ruler of Avanti sleeps alone
in a hut. Please live in the palace.
Next day the coronation ceremony was organized. Avadhoot Yogi was seated on the throne. People started talking
In the evening the yogi returned to his hut on the river bank and slept.

See the irony of fate. One king has abandoned the state and become a yogi. And another yogi is becoming a king.
Next evening the king gave instructions
I will stay in the palace. For a yogi palace and hut
are same.

As you say, Sire!
Arrange to decorate the main road from my bedroom right up to
the city gate
The instructions were followed at once. Perfumed water was sprinkled all over the road. Flowers were spread. Incense sticks were burnt. Trays filled with sweets, fruits and dry fruits were placed all along the road.
