Then, having approached a Brahmin who wears the sacred thread around the neck and has performed many sacrifices, having said: 'Staffs are to be given,' having taken the staffs, having had his name conferred [upon him], being permitted, he should properly practice the duties of an ascetic: always wearing a topknot, always wearing the sacred thread, always performing the twilight devotion, always bathing in the morning, always subsisting on alms, always observing restraints, observances, disciplines, vows, and fasts, always worshipping the Lord, always residing in cow-pens or temples, devoid of fear, desire, anger, greed, delusion, pride, and malice.
