tadahamanuniśāmya viprayātaṃ pṛthagabhipannamihābudhairmanuṣyaiḥ |
anavasitamanantadoṣapāraṃ nṛṣu viharāmi vinītaroṣatṛṣṇaḥ || 36 ||
Foolish men fail to understand this vow in a proper light. I, however, see it to be destructive of Ignorance. Regarding it also as fraught with immortality and as a remedy against diverse kinds of evil, I wander among men, having subdued all faults and having freed myself from thirst (after worldly goods)!'
