saṃnyāsaṃ niścayaṃ kṛtvā punar na ca karoti yaḥ | sa kuryāt kṛcchramātraṃ tu punaḥ saṃnyastum arhati ||2||
ผู้ใดตั้งความแน่วแน่เพื่อสันนยาสแล้ว แต่ไม่กระทำให้สำเร็จ (และกลับไปทำอีก) ผู้นั้นพึงทำเพียง “กฤจฉระ” คือการชดใช้บาปแบบเคร่งครัด แล้วจึงควรแก่การสละโลกอีกครั้ง
He who, having made the resolve for renunciation, does not (carry it out) again—he should perform only a kṛcchra penance; then he is fit to renounce again.
