He well churned his body. 
Praise to his conscience and his deep devotion ! 
He was altogether free from passions and desires. 
His subjects begged him, 
That they are in trouble for want of a ruler. 
They brought him home against his will, 
And said “ Have your senses left you P ” 
He replied, “ I am not a fool, but the world is so. 
“ O ! mother, you are fond of Raj.” 
When any one else admonished him again, 
That you, being a child, are too obstinate, 
He replied, “ I am not your child ; 
“ I can discover the accounts of all the nine parts of the world 
in a moment.” 
His mother asked him the details : 
“You are only 5 years’ old. 
“ In what places did you practise Jog ? 
“ Tell me an account of it, 
“ 0 ! child, nobody did so in my family. 
“ I tell you truly.” 
Kil said, “ Hear, my reverend mother, 
“ I shall tell you the whole story.” 
The mother said : 
“ Have you got no parents ? ” 
Kil said, “ Hear my respected mother ! 
“ I shall give you a further description. 
“ Mardan Siqgh was a Raja. 
“ I fully describe his asceticism. 
“ I, seeing that, remained there long. 
“ His country was void of desires. 
“ I passed the rainy season in the jungle there, 
“ Where I devoted myself to the service of all the deities, 
“ There I remained alone. 
“ I always delighted in divine contemplation

I relate a Jog of mine (in a previous life). 
I was at Panipat Karnal (Kandal in manuscript). 
There was a Jogi, named Bliartihari. 
His Jog was unfathomable. 
He was a devotee, four times greater than others. 
In Sankaldip there was a Guru (priest).
