AT one time two men were engaged to wrestle.
One of them was Hanuman Singh and the other a
Mussulman from the Punjab. The Mussalman was
a strong and stout man. Pie had eaten lustily of
butter and meat for fifteen days before the day of
the wrestling-match, and even on that day. All
thought he would be the victor.
Hanuman Singh, on the other hand, clad in dirty
cloth, had eaten sparingly for some days before the
day of the match and devoted himself to repeating
the holy name of Mahavir21. On the day of the
match he observed a complete fast. All thought he
would surely be defeated.
But it was he who won, while the man who had
feasted for fifteen days lost the fight. (
