TEXT 66

yathā-yogya udara bhare, nā kare 'viṣaya' bhoga
sannyāsīra tabe siddha haya jñāna-yoga


SYNONYMS

yathā-yogya—as much as necessary; udara bhare—fills the belly; nā kare—does not do; viṣaya bhoga—material enjoyment; sannyāsīra—of a sannyāsī; tabe—then; siddha—perfect; haya—is; jñāna-yoga—spiritual advancement in knowledge.


TRANSLATION

"A sannyāsī eats as much as necessary to maintain his body, but he does not enjoy satisfying his senses materially. Thus a sannyāsī becomes perfect in his spiritual advancement in knowledge.
