āśramāpasadā hyete khalvāśramaviḍambanāḥ /
devamāyāvimūḍhāṃstān upekṣetānukampayā //
38. & 39. The omission of religious duties on the part of a Grihastha, the violation of his vow on the part of a Brahmacharin, residing in inhabited places of one engaged in Tapas and want of restraint of the senses on the part of an ascetic:— these are respectively the most vitiating circumstances affecting the four orders and these are the accursed instances belonging to these asramas and they are only aping the form. One should out of pity neglect them as beings deluded by the Almighty Lord's Maya.
