As the period of two vears drew to a close his family, who loved him so dearly, grew morose and rest. less. They dreaded seeing him go. But they hid their tears, and with dignity and courage smiled bravely, encouraging him in his great endeavor.
One day nine shining beings appeared in the court. They were the celestial guardians of the holy path leading to liberation, and they came to urge him on his way
"Victory to you." they cried. "Now please prepare to go forth, for the benefit of all beings of the world, and establish the path of freedom and truth."
