LAGHU YOGA VASISTHA
Thus did Bhusunda end, when Vasistha addressed
him thus „That which you have deigned to relate to
me is equally marvellous. It has enchanted my ears
and captivated my heart. Whoever on lending his
ears to it will not be in raptures over it P May you
prosper gloriously. As the sun is about to reach the
meridian now, I shall wend my way to Deva loka.
May prosperity be with you.‟ So saying I rose and
steered my way in the Akasa, where in spite of all
my entreaties to stay where he was, he
accompanied me many Yojanas. Then through dint
of sheer force, I compelled him to stay and return.
Is it not, oh Rama, heart-rending to part from pure
Jnanis? I parted from Bhusunda, the great Yogi
once in Krita- Yuga. Then I visited him again in
this Treta-Yuga, when, Rama, you didst incarnate.
Therefore you should know that this is the path of
Bhusunda, the great Yogi.
