Adhyaya 33: Pashupata Conduct, Bhasma-Vrata, and Shiva’s Boon to the Sages
Devanagari script
न निन्देद्यतिनं तस्माद् दिग्वाससमनुत्तमम् बालोन्मत्तविचेष्टं तु मत्परं ब्रह्मवादिनम्
Transliteration
na nindedyatinaṃ tasmād digvāsasamanuttamam bālonmattaviceṣṭaṃ tu matparaṃ brahmavādinam
Translation
ゆえに、方角を衣とする者（ディグヴァーサ）の中でも最勝の遊行者（ヤティ）を、決してそしってはならない。たとえ幼子のように、あるいは狂者のように振る舞っても、彼は全身全霊で我に帰依し、ブラフマンを宣説する。かかる者こそ、パティに向かう聖者であり、パシュ（個我）を縛るパーシャ（束縛）を超えた者である。
