Its tongue and upper inner part of the mouth was as red as burnt gold. Its nose was like the symbol of worship of Laxmi (the goddess of wealth). That horse was looking very beautiful due to the aura or 卐 grandeur of its body just as a water drop shines on lotus leaves. It was expert in serving its master. Its body had the requisite briskness (smartness). That horse had the habit of avoiding unclean undulating areas and following the levelled path just as a monk who has cleaned his body by taking bath keeps himself away from undesirable places so that he may not come in contact with unclean substances. 55 That horse used to move ahead hitting the ground with the beat of his hoofs. When his rider wanted it to enact, it used to raise both of its feet in such a way that it appeared that both of its feet were coming out from its face simultaneously. It moving harmoniously. Its gait was so 55 quick that it was capable of moving on the stalks of lotus in the water which has lotus tube in it. In other words it could run fast even in water just as it used to run on land. It was of excellent breed, clan and beauty and had all the twelve meritorious signs. It had been born in excellent family according to the treatise on horse progeny. It was intelligent (and could very well understand the subtle indication and the purport of the rider in calling its name). It was good and humble. Its pores were subtle, soft and smooth. So it was very bright with its fast speed. It had the capability of surpassing the speed of a celestial being, the mind, the wind and that of garuda. It was very smart and quick. (193) Jain Education International 455 卐 卐 It was compassionate like a monk. It never hit any one with its leg nor any one with its mouth. It never hurt any one with its tail. It was obedient like a well-educated student. It was capable of crossing water, fire, stony areas, dust, mud, places having small brick-bats, sandy areas, banks of rivers, foot of hills undulating ridges, hilly caves, and in moving as directed by its rider. It had the expertise of suddenly attacking the enemy just as the great warriors wield weapons in a battle. Tears never trickled down from his eyes in spite of the fatigue of moving on the road. Its inner palate was without any blackish mark. It neighed only at the 455 proper time. It had controlled its sleep. It made the call of nature only at a proper place. It never felt disgusted due to the effect of heat or of cold. Its maternal side was faultless. Its nose was like mogra flower. Its colour was beautiful like feather of a parrot. Its body was soft. In reality, it was very charming. 457 卐 45 卐 455 5 तृतीय वक्षस्कार Third Chapter For Private & Personal Use Only 55 45 4 45 55 55 卐 卐 卐 47 5455 卐 卐 2595959555 5 5 5 5 5 555555 5 5559555555552 卐 www.jainelibrary.org
