36 And Jesus raised his hand in silent benediction; then he went his way.
CHAPTER 37.
Jesus is presented with a camel. He goes to Lahore where he abides with Ajainin, whom he teaches. Lesson of the wandering musicians. Jesus resumes his journey.
A caravan of merchantmen were journeying through the Kashmar vale as Jesus passed that way, and they were going to Lahore, a city of the Hand, the five-stream land.
2 The merchantmen had heard the prophet speak, had seen his mighty works in Leh, and they were glad to see him once again.
3 And when they knew that he was going to Lahore and then across the Sind, through Persia and the farther West, and that he had no beast on which to ride,
4 They freely gave to him a noble bactrian beast, well saddled and equipped, and Jesus journeyed with the caravan.
5 And when he reached Lahore, Ajainin and some other Brahmic priests, received him with delight.
6 Ajainin was the priest who came to Jesus in the night time in Benares many months before, and heard his words of truth.
7 And Jesus was Ajainin’s guest; he taught Ajainin many things; revealed to him the secrets of the healing art.
