विमुक्तः सर्वपापेभ्यो मुक्तत्वच इवोरग: । परां बुद्धिमवाप्येह विपाप्मा विगतज्वर:,केंचुल छोड़कर निकले हुए सर्पके समान सम्पूर्ण पापोंसे मुक्त हो उत्तम बुद्धि पाकर तुम यहाँ पाप और चिन्तासे रहित हो जाओ
vimuktaḥ sarvapāpebhyo muktatvac iva uragaḥ | parāṃ buddhim avāpyeha vipāpmā vigatajvaraḥ ||
খোলস ত্যাগ কৰি ওলাই অহা সাপৰ দৰে তুমি সকলো পাপৰ পৰা মুক্ত হ’বা। ইয়াত পৰম বুদ্ধি লাভ কৰি তুমি নিষ্পাপ আৰু জ্বৰহীন—অৰ্থাৎ ব্যাকুলতা আৰু চিন্তামুক্ত—হ’বা।

True purification is an inner transformation: by attaining higher discernment (parā buddhi), one becomes free from moral stain (vipāpmā) and from the ‘fever’ of mental agitation (vigatajvaraḥ), as naturally as a serpent leaves behind its old skin.
Vyāsa speaks in an instructive tone, using a vivid simile: just as a serpent emerges after shedding its skin, the listener is urged toward a state of release from past wrongdoing and inner turmoil through the attainment of supreme understanding.
