Question

How does the guru manage to save his disciple’s life?

Answer

The Guru manages to save his disciple by playing a clever trick on the foolish King. He tells the King that the new stake is the stake of the god of justice and that whoever dies on it first will be reborn as the King of that country, and the second person will be reborn as the Minister.

Greedy to remain in power in their next life, the King and his Minister decide to go to the stake themselves in disguise. In this way, the Guru successfully saves the disciple's life through his wisdom.
