“As soon as the storm stopped, there arrived a swarm of ants. Mahavira’s body was covered with biting and stinging ants. After this, innumerable mosquitoes attacked Mahavira’s body. This was followed by biting mongoose, large cobras and giant field rats… Then a tiger attacked and gored Mahavira with its sharp talons. When all these painful afflictions failed to disturb Mahavira’s meditation. Sangam took a different approach. He created a realistic illusion of Siddharth and Trishla weeping and wailing profusely. This too could not penetrate Mahavira’s iron resolve.” “After all these physical blows, Sangam resorted to a psychological attack. He arrived in his divine form riding a Viman. ‘Why are You suffering so much and still standing on the earth? Come, I will take You to Heaven with this mortal body of Yours.’ Mahavira did not respond. Lastly, Sangam produced sparsely clad fairies that approached Mahavira and undulated their voluptuous bodies invitingly. He also created an atmosphere conducive to lustful deeds… Sangam was very exhausted after trying all these tricks on Lord Mahavira. On the other hand, even after tolerating these painful tortures, Mahavira remained poised in His elevated state of meditation.”
