What my friend has said just now is the whole truth, not otherwise. I am telling you the truth and not a lie. 艢iva has been wooed by me, by mind, speech and action as well as by means of ascetic feelings. I know that it is an inaccessible object. How can I attain it? Still out of my eagerness I am performing this penance鈥�.
