Uma said Hermits live in charming regions, among the springs and fountains of rivers, in bowers by the sides of rivers and rills, on hills and mountains, in woods and forests, and in sacred places full of fruits and roots. With rapt attention and observing vows and rules, they live in even such places.
उमोवाच देशेषु रमणीयेषु नदीनां निझरेषु च। स्रवन्तीनां निकुञ्जेषु पर्वतेषु वनेषु च॥ देशेषु च पवित्रेषु फलवस्तु समाहिताः। मूलवत्सु च मध्येषु वसन्ति नियतव्रताः॥
