Properly studying thus to the best of his power, in the way described above, and likewise living as a Brahmacharin, one who performs the duties of his own order, endued with learning, observant of penances, and with all the senses under control, devoted to what is agreeable and beneficial to the preceptor, steady in practising the duty of truth, and always pure, should, with the permission of the preceptor, eat his food without decrying it. He should eat Havishya made from what is got in alms, and should stand, sit, and take exercise (as directed).
एवमेतेन मार्गेण पूर्वोक्तेन यथाविधि। अधीतवान् यथाशक्ति तथैव ब्रह्मचर्यवान्॥ स्वधर्मनिरतो विद्वान् सर्वेन्द्रिययतो मुनिः। गुरोः प्रियहिते युक्तः सत्यधर्मपरः शुचिः॥ गुरुणा समनुज्ञातो भुञ्जीतान्नमकुत्सयन्। हविष्यभैक्ष्यभुक् चापि स्थानासनविहारवान्॥
