Gita Press English

He made the NiƒŒda chief lead the van and then started the palanquins carrying the queen-mothers, and summoning his younger brother (Ýatrughna) told him off as their escort. The Guru proceeded next alongwith the other BrŒhma˜as. He himself then made obeisance to the celestial river, invoked S¶tŒ, RŒma and Lakƒma˜a and set forth on foot; while riding horses meant for the king were led by the bridle alongwith him. Again and again his faithful servants said, "Be pleased, sire,to mount your horse." "Ýr¶ RŒma has gone on foot; while chariots, elephants and horses are intended for me! What behoves me is that I should walk on my head; for the duty of a servant is harder than any other duty." Seeing his behaviour and hearing his polite speech all his servants melted out of a feeling of self-disparagement. (1—4)
