King Vikramaditya reached the peepal tree. He pulled the corpse down and putting it on his shoulder walked as usual. Baital again started telling him a story. “Once, there was a king named Jwalasen. He ruled the kingdom of Ujjain. But he was not a good king. The people did not like him. He was an addict and gambled the whole day. One day, King Jwalasen was gambling as usual. In the process, he lost his kingdom to his opponent who was the neighbouring king. The neighbouring king threw King Jwalasen out of the kingdom. King Jwalasen had nowhere to go. So, he decided to take shelter in a friendly kingdom. Keeping this in mind, he started his journey. On the way, King Jwalasen passed a crematory. He saw a hermit deep in meditation. The King was hungry, so he paid respects to the hermit and sat before him.
