Seeing Rāma’s stern consternation, Jābāli cleverly changes his position “I do not speak the language of unbelievers” he says, “nor am I an atheist. This is not true that there is nothing beyond this world. (I became an atheist and) considering the occasion again turned to be a believer. On other occasion I may become an atheist again. This was an occasion for me to adopt the speech of an atheist just for persuading you to return back and to please you.”⁴⁶
