One day a bull
among them spoke to him: "Satyakama! Now the cows are a thousand in number. Take them
to your Guru. I shall teach you ‘a fourth’ about Brahman or
God. His name is Prakasavan. Agni, the God of fire, will teach you more later."
And he taught Satyakama a quarter of the sacred truth. Accordingly, Jabala drove the cows to the Guru’s ashrama.
He stopped on the way for the night and lighted a fire to
warm himself.
From that fire God Agni appeared before him and said:
"Satyakama! I shall teach you the second quarter of the sacred truth about Brahman.
He is called Anantavan."
And he taught him another quarter of the sacred
knowledge.Accordingly, Jabala drove the cows to the Guru’s ashrama. |
