"In Peepal leave which is large, stalk or the pointed edge ?" The king became confused. He asked Rohak-“What did you decide ?" “As long as a part of the edge does not dry, both are equal.” After giving this reply Rohak went back to sleep. 13. The Squirrel-During the fourth quarter of the night the king once again called “Rohak, What are you thinking about ?" "Sire, the tail of a squirrel is larger than its body or smaller ?" “What do you think ?" “Sire, both are equal.” 14. Five Fathers—The night ended. At dawn the sound of 4 auspicious music woke the king but Rohak was still in deep sleep. He 41 I did not awake even when the king called. The king then goaded him with his stick. When Rohak opened his eyes the king asked—“Say Rohak ! What are you thinking now ?" “Sire, I was thinking how many fathers you have ?" This loose statement first infuriated the king. But as he had faith 4 in Rohak's wisdom he composed himself and asked—“You tell me, how many fathers I have ?" Rohak became serious and said "Sire ! You have five fathers." The king uttered with surprise“What ? Tell me how ?” Rohak replied—“First is Kuber (the god of wealth) because you are as magnanimous as Kuber. The second is chandal (the keeper of a crematorium) because for your enemies you are as cruel as a chandal. The third is washer-man because as a washer-man squeezes all water 45 from the clothes so you do squeeze everything out of a traitor of the 41 kingdom or the country. The fourth is a scorpion because just as a $ scorpion causes pain by its sting, you have caused pain to me by goading with a stick. And your fifth father is your real father, the late king, because like him you are benevolently and justly ruling over 5 4 your subjects and the kingdom.” मतिज्ञान (औत्पत्तिकी बुद्धि) (863) Mati-jnana (Autpattiki Buddhi) 1965 196455555555555566454 在听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 545555 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
