i6o Brahmanism and Gautama Buddha With epic breadth and many a pathetic scene, the legend goes on to describe his execution of the " great decision of renunciation. " Parents and friends and wife labored in vain to hold him back, but all their pleading made no impression. In the dead of night, he bade his sleeping wife and child a silent farewell. Mounted on a horse, accompanied by only one servant, he left the city secretly. Soon he sent back the horse and the servant and exchanged his princel
...y garments for a beggar's dress. At first, he followed the studies of two Brahmanic teachers, but their instruction gave him no satisfaction. After two years, he left them and began an independent life as a penitent; thereupon, five other penitents joined with him. During five years, he lived a life of strict asceticism and went so far in self-castigation that he was close on to death. Then he recognized that this, too, was not the right way ; he gave up the life of asceticism, he ate and drank again like other human beings and his former comrades and disciples looked upon him as a renegade and deserted him.
