तेनोत्तमफलार्थेन संस्कारान्प्राक्तनानसौ ।
विवेकपादपारूढस्त्यजत्यहिरिव त्वचम् ॥ ६ ॥

tenottamaphalārthena saṃskārānprāktanānasau |
vivekapādapārūḍhastyajatyahiriva tvacam || 6 ||

For he who has ascended on the tree of reason or knowledge, in order to taste its delicious fruits, forgets the relish of his habitual food, and forsakes the bondage of his former deserts, as a snake casts aside his slough or skin.
