Once a prince was handed over to a hunter by his

stepmother. The hunter brought him up like his own

son. Once a relative of the prince came to him and

revealed that he was actually a prince only. Thereafter,

he began to behave like a prince and cultivated Ks
ṣ
atriya quality in him and after some days, he became a

king. The maxim remarks that the individual soul

forgets its real nature and thinks itself to be a limited

self only. By and by, with the advice of the preceptor,

it realizes its own real state of the Brahman.

Doing service to anybody is a difficult work. Moreover

it is very difficult to serve a king. Inspite of his hard

and sincere work, the servant is always blamed. The

maxim emphasizes the fact that serving anybody is a

very difficult work.
