मौनव्रतश्रुततपोध्ययनस्वधर्म-

"Vow of silence, learning, penance,
study of scripture, performing one's
Dharma, exposition, muttering of prayers
in solitude, concentration -these means
of salvation often become mere liveli-
hood, O Supreme Being, for persons of
unconquered senses; and for those who
have these for show, they are not even a
livelihood.

• तत्तेऽर्हत्तम नमस्स्तुतिकर्मपूजाः
कर्म स्मृतिश्चरणयोः श्रवणं कथायाम् ।
संसेवया त्वयि विनेति षडङ्गया किं
भक्ति जनः परमहंसगतौ लभेत ॥'
 
"Therefore, O most worthy Being, how
can man have devotion for you, the goal
of the great men of self-realisation,
without the six-fold worship of you,-
Mobeisance, prayer, offering of action,
service, thought of your feet, and listen
ing to your stories ?"
