बिभृयाद्यद्यसौ वासः कौपीनाच्छादनं परम् ।
त्यक्तं न लिङ्गाद्दण्डादेर् अन्यत्किञ्चिदनापदि ॥ २ ॥
tyaktam na liṅgad dandader
bibhryat-one should use; yadi-if; asau-a person in the renounced order; vasah-a garment or covering; kaupina-a loincloth (just to cover the private parts); acchadanam-for covering; param-that much only; tyaktam-given up; na-not; liṅgat-than the distinguishing marks of a sannyasi; danda-adeh-like the rod (tridanda); anyat-other; kincit-anything; anapadi-in ordinary undisturbed times.
A person in the renounced order of life may try to avoid even a dress to cover himself. If he wears anything at all, it should be only a loincloth, and when there is no necessity, a sannyasi should not even accept a danda. A sannyasi should avoid carrying anything but a danda and kamandalu.
