അവരുടെ വിഹാരം സ്വൈരമാണ്; അവരുടെ സഞ്ചാരം സ്വതന്ത്രമായ അലച്ചിലാകുന്നു. വസ്ത്രധാരികളായാലും ദിഗംബരരായാലും. അവർക്കു ധർമ്മാധർമ്മഭേദമില്ല, ശുദ്ധാശുദ്ധഭേദമില്ല. അശ്വമേധാന്തമായ അന്തിമാഹുതിവരെ യജ്ഞം ചെയ്യുന്നവൻ; അവൻ മഹാമഖൻ, മഹായോഗി.
Free (is) their wandering; their movement is spontaneous roaming. Clothed or sky-clad (naked). For them there are no (categories of) dharma and adharma, no pure and impure. Always he performs the sacrifice that culminates in the Aśvamedha and the final offering; he is the great sacrificer, the great yogin.
