punished in the Bardo. No. If for the Germans the priority was to reach the Door of Shambalah,
the abode of the Demons, for them the priority was the Kula, the manifestation of the Divine
Shakti. And the Kula would be lost if they not acted as authentic warriors Akula. They would
opt then, to help Oskar Feil.

The second and last night that the group of Schaeffer would remain in Ashram Jafran,
the Gurkhas decided to act. Without hesitate they sank into the cold waters of the Lake Kyaring
and swimming slowly surrounded the islet to emerge in the rear part of the Temple. The
sentinels didn’t notice anything. Rapidly, they climbed up to a skylight in form of six-pointed
star that, at looking to the East, at the daylight permitted that the sunlight illuminates the
enormous statue of Ridgen Jyepo, but that the exact day of the summer solstice directed the
sunlight directly in the Heart of the King of the World. Fortunately such horrible aperture
admitted the pass of a man, which was used by Gangi to descend trowing a rope to its interior;
his brother would remain in guard in the exterior cornice.

Once inside, he verified that the Temple was illuminated with torches, and that, strongly
tied with ropes of hemp, Oskar Feil was sleeping upon the sacrificial stone. In front him, the
Chief of the Lords of Karma enjoyed anticipatedly the yajnavirya of his pain, according to
what the intruder thought with shudder, at watching the rictus and the diabolic gaze of the
sinister sculpture. But he saw something more: in the interior was also a guard. It consisted of
four duskhas, although they were far away, next to the only door of the Temple: two were
sleeping over a mat, while the other two were talking pertly. The Gurkha started to crawl
stealthily, trying that the sacrificial stone intercepts the vision of the duskhas and carrying in
the mouth a sharp dagger to cut the ligatures.

Momentarily hidden behind the altar of stone, the kâulika Gurkha incorporated himself
to mildly and peered above the body of Oskar the behaviour of the duskhas: they continued
completetly distracted, entertained now playing dice. One of them slipped a hand on the face of
Oskar and pressed it strongly against his mouth, with the purpose to avoid him to speak or
emit any unnecessary sound at his awakening. However, nowwithstanding he shook him with
singular violence, the prisoner not recovered his senses. Finally he opened his eyes, but Gangi
was them white, with the exorbitant upwards pupils, and he comprehended annoyed that
German suffered the effects of a narcotic.

Nothing could be done, except to move backwards and abandon the Temple. Shiva
would forgive now at least to whom had risked his life to rescue the victim from the Demons.
But it was seen that the Gods disposed another Destiny for the Gurkha; at removing the hand
from the mouth of Oskar, believing him completely fainted, occurred the unthinkable: he
released a penetrating threnody and convulsed for an instant, to fall immediately in the
previous fainting.
