But, due to his ill habits, he spent them all in just a short time and lost the whole wealth. He became very poor and started the life of a beggar. Swaroop watched from heaven, his son turning into a beggar and could not bear it.

He appeared to Nirmal and gave him a cup saying, "Nirmal, my son, this is not an ordinary cup. This cup will give you whatever you wish for. Keep this and use this well. You need not be a beggar anymore." But, Nirmal, in his drunken mood threw away the cup and broke it. He remained a beggar for the rest of his life.
