15) WHAT COMPELLED HARISHCHANDRA
TO STAY AT THE CEMETERY?
Harishchandra & Taramati were the king & queen in their previous birth also. One day, looking at two saints, the queen grew passionate. She tried to attract them by making various gestures but all her efforts were in vain.
The saints criticized her demands & told her that to get attracted towards a fascinating bag of excrement is an ignorance. Inwardly, the body is full of excrements, so why to get attracted towards its beautiful exterior? But how can the person, who has worn the spectacles of desires & has become blind, realize the true nature of things. Thus, in order to take revenge of her insult, she spread rumours about them. She alleged, "These wicked saints have attacked my character. Help! Help !" Soldiers arrested and took them to the king.
