Thus travelling I felt tired both bodily and mentally and I was both thirsty and hungry. So I took bath in the lake of a river and drunk water also. I got relief from tiredness by such contact of water.

A travelling mendicant can meet the needs of body namely thirst and hunger by the gifts of nature withont being a beggar at the door of the householders. The mendicant therefore does not go at the house of householder for begging but for enlightening him spiritually.
