YAJNAVALKYA

What A Wonder!

Yajnavalkya walked out of the palace without looking back, and went straight to his gurukula. Meanwhile, as an effect of the tirtha, the wooden pole of the palace sprouted. In another moment flowers and fruit appeared on it. Seeing this, the king and all his people were stunned. The king's arrogance and scorn were gone. He immediately sent his messengers to Vaishampayana's ashram. They conveyed the request of the king to the Maharshi that Yajnavalkya might kindly bring again the tirtha and prasada to his palace.

Yajnavalkya, by that time, had reported everything that had happened in the palace to his guru. On hearing this, the master was upset. He felt that Yajnavalkya had
behaved hastily, he was worried about how to set it rights. It was just at that moment that the king's messengers had come and conveyed the request of the king. It was a
big relief to the master.
