} heat, hunger, thirst. You are not able to tolerate quietly the
* affect of diseases arising from physical disorders in the body, the
% conditions against the normallikes of your senses. The twenty
two inflictions and affliction are the result of situations beyond
} your control. You cannot bear such situation with equanimity.
3 So, O my dear son ! You enjoy the family pleasures. Thereafter,

Then Megh Kumar said—“O dearparents ! You have rightly said &
* about the Nirgranth Pravachanthatit is very difficult to follow but %
it is so for the weak, coward, those who are deeply involved in

follow such a conduct. So, dear parents, I want to get initiated after
<; your consent.”(//lustrated Jnata Dharma-katha, Chapter1) ‘a
