Thus while talking they came near the palace. Mother Shridevi was overwhelmed with joy when she saw Atimukta leading Gautam Swami holding his finger. She rushed to the gate and paid homage to the sage
Oh! It's our good luck Muniraj that you have
graced us with your presence. Please bless us with an opportunity to
offer you alms.
Mother! Please offer him enough food to stop his wanderings.
The mother offered alms to the sage.
Gautam Swami accepted food as per his code and turned back to leave. The child asked
Son ! Outside the city my spiritual teacher,
Bhagavan Mahavir, is Where
staying in Shrivan will you go garden. I go back now ?
there only.
So, he is your spiritual teacher. May I also accompany you
to meet him?
Sure! You will be happy to behold him.
