But the point is that Raja Janaq, which is the king, Janaq, who was the father of Sitaan, he came to the sage, Ashtavakra, and said, I have everything in the world, everything, the kingdom is there. But I want only the self. So it is the king who came to this sage, who had an unhealthy body. And then this dialogue that they had is called the Ashtavakra Gita. One of the most direct pointings to the truth, which are available. So this sage had nothing. And nothing, the nominal is speaking. But the king that had everything came and fell at his feet to be in the presence of the truth. So who had the tough life? Is it the sage or the sage with the body, which was bent in eight parts? It bent in eight places. Yes. Or the king who had everything. Who had the tough life? Yes. So don't fall for these tricks of the mind.
