could not tolerate this and they framed a conspiracy to defame the us ascetic. 4 When the monsoon stay came to an end and the ascetic started
preparing to depart, according to the plan of opponents, a pregnant E maid came to the ascetic and said—“O ascetic, I am pregnant and we will give birth to your child soon. At such a time if you depart leaving 4 me alone who will look after me?"
The ascetic could understand that this was part of some 15 conspiracy by some opponents. If he left in this situation it will be 51 detrimental for him as well as the religious organisation. He was an
accomplished spiritualist with unusual powers as well. He used his hidden power on the maid and said to her—"If your pregnancy is by
me you will have a timely delivery. But if it is not so, you will not be 55 able to give birth to the child normally, it will have to be taken out by cutting open your stomach."
The maid was in her full months. She failed to give birth even 15 when few days passed after the expected date. Slowly her pain 4 increased. In this miserable condition her family members took her to
the ascetic. Paying her homage to the ascetic she said moaning with
pain-"O great ascetic, joining the conspiracy fetched by your 5 adversaries I put a false blame on you. I got the punishment for my 5 deeds. Please forgive me and deliver me from this terrible pain."
The ascetic was simple and pure hearted. He at once pardoned the maid and withdrew his spell. The fame of the ascetic spread all around.
3. The prince-A prince was very fond of modaks (laddu, ball shaped sweet) since his childhood. Once on some ceremonial occasi F he got prepared very tasty food, of course, including modaks. When F he took his meal with his friends, he could not control himself and ate * much more modaks than he could digest. As a consequence he had
indigestion. The pain and stench due to indigestion became
intolerable. In this condition he started thinking-"Such tasty and i fragrant things turned into stinking excreta as soon as they came in fi contact with the body. This body is made of filth and anything that
comes in contact with the body ultimately turns into filth. Curse this w body the pleasures of which inspire man to indulge in so much sin.” Si मतिज्ञान (पारिणामिकी बुद्धि)
