Dhuttakkhānaga (Dhūrtåkhyānaka). A satire containing humorous tales narrated by four knaves : Sasaga(1), Elāsādha, Müladeva(1) and lady Khamdapāņā. They were staying in a garden at Ujjeņi. It was a rainy season and they were all suffering from hunger. Hence, they agreed that they should narrate, one by one, their experiences or whatever they had heard. He whose narration is proved as an incredible lie will feed the gathering and he who cofirms the tale by quoting parallels from Bhāraha(2) and Rāmāyana, need not give any thing. All of them narrated fantastic tales and confirmed them by the legends which were unnatural, inconsister and unacceptable to reason as they are found in Mahābhārata, Rāmāyana etc.
