As he walked, the Brahmin felt the feet of the demon as soft as a lotus.  Then the Brahmin asked the demon, why are your feet so soft?  Because he is naturally curious to know everything.  The demon replied to the Brahmin that his whole body was as soft as a lotus, for he never puts his wet feet on the ground for the vows, which is why his body is so soft.
