After initiation ascetic Arjuna took a tough vow
O Lord! Today onwards
I will move around
enkindling my soul by observing a two-day fast sequence all
my life.
Then ascetic Arjuna devoted himself to cleansing his soul of the sins he had committed. Just after initiation he observed a two-day fast. On the breakfast-day he studied during the first quarter of the day and during the second quarter he meditated.
During the third quarter he went out to collect alms. While moving around in Rajagriha someone recognized him
YTATTUNATE
Look! He is the same Arjuna Malakar who killed
my father.
He killed my brother. Beat him !
Hey! He brutally murdered my wife and kids.
