समितावि प्रहाय पुण्यविपाकं विरतो ज्ञात्व इमं परं च लोकं ।
जातीमरणं उपातिवृत्तो श्रमणो तादि प्रवुच्चति तथत्वा ॥ १० ॥

samitāvi prahāya puṇyavipākaṃ virato jñātva imaṃ paraṃ ca lokaṃ |
jātīmaraṇaṃ upātivṛtto śramaṇo tādi pravuccati tathatvā || 10 ||

He who is tranquil, having abandoned all merit and its maturing, he who is passionless, knowing this world and the world beyond, who has overcome birth and death—such an one is truly called a recluse. (10)
