As Uddâlaka could not regain his ground, he sat down, without answering. The Brâhmaṇa however, said to the king : All these, O great king, are cheats, they will ruin the whole of India with their hypocrisy. Make Uddâlaka give up his asceticism and make him my disciple ; make the rest return to their former condition, give them arms and make them your servants.” The king was pleased with this advice of his teacher and so they were all enlisted in the service of the king.
