01. ELEPHANT (GAJWAR)
It was big, tall and impetuous with four tusks. It was an auspicious elephant, and was endowed with all desirable marks of excellence.
This dream indicated that she would give birth to a child with exceptionally high character. The four tusks signified that he would guide the spiritual chariot with its four components: monks (Sädhus), nuns (Sädhvis), laymen (Shrävaks), and laywomen (Shrävikäs).
