27<br />
life where Buddha instructed his pupil Ananda<br />
as follows:<br />
There are four types of horses. The first<br />
type of an adamant horse will not budge an<br />
inch however much it may be thrashed with a<br />
whip. The second type of horse will run so<br />
long as it is continued to be whipped and will<br />
stop <strong>the</strong> moment <strong>the</strong> whipping stops. The third<br />
type of horse will begin to run just at <strong>the</strong><br />
cracking of <strong>the</strong> whip. The last and excellent<br />
type will begin to run just on seeing <strong>the</strong><br />
shadow of <strong>the</strong> driver's hand moving towards<br />
<strong>the</strong> whip.<br />
Ashtavakra himself says ""A person of<br />
pure intellect is able to realise his Self even<br />
through casual instructions while o<strong>the</strong>rs<br />
continue to wallow in <strong>the</strong>ir delusions despite<br />
a lifetime of enquiry and exposure to<br />
elaborate instructions. 2 Hence Ashtavakra<br />
