MANTRALAYA MAHAKSHETRA

AS HOUSEHOLDER

Though he ascended the highest seat in the realm of ancient Sanskrit knowledge, he remained poor - too poor to make both ends meet at any time. Actually, the family spent many a meal-less day, but their fortitude and culture kept them always at the crest of contented existence. To added fuel to the fire, as it were, many students came to him for learning the sacred lore. According to tradition, the preceptor has to feed both body and mind of the Vidhyarthis. He plodded along the dreary road of life, teaching, and still learning the mysteries of ancient lore. And writing master-pieces besides.
