Shloka 4
सूक्ष्मभूत-भूतात्मविज्ञानम्
Knowing the subtle principle and the bhūtātman through yoga
तत् भवानेवमभ्यस्थ वर्ततां श्रूयतां तथा । एक एव चरेद् धर्म सिद्धयर्थमसहायवान्
tat bhavānevam abhyasya vartatāṃ śrūyatāṃ tathā | eka eva cared dharma-siddhyartham asahāyavān ||
Anakku! Dengarkanlah aturan-aturan dharma sannyāsa ini; latihlah dan hiduplah sesuai dengannya. Demi mencapai kesempurnaan rohani (siddhi), seorang pertapa hendaknya menjalankan dharma pelepasan seorang diri, tanpa mengambil seorang pun sebagai pendamping.

Educational Q&A
Renunciant discipline must be internalized through practice and then lived out; for spiritual attainment (siddhi), the sannyāsin should observe the dharma of renunciation in solitude, without relying on companions.
Vyāsa continues instructing the listener on the rules and ethos of saṃnyāsa: first to practice and embody the teaching, and then to pursue the renunciant path alone as a means to spiritual accomplishment.
