Yayâti.—“The muni who, fixing his dwelling in the forest, spurns at all the provisions of the town, and lives only on the produce of the woods, is said to turn his back on habitation. The sage (muni) who has passed the stage of performing agnihotra and has no house of his own, and has transcended the limitations of gotras (clan), and Charanas (Vedic Schools), puts on only a kaupîna or wears cast off garments, eats only to keep his body and soul together, is the ascetic (muni) living in the village with his back turned towards the forest.”—11-13.
