Those men who are freed from attachments, who are shorn of pride, who are above all pairs of opposites, who have no wives and children and houses and gardens, etc., who are gifted with purity, and who live upon the alms given to them by others, are considered as Tirthas.
निर्मला निरहंकारा निर्द्वन्द्वा निष्परिग्रहाः। शुचयस्तीर्थभूतास्ते ये भैक्ष्यमुपभुञ्जते॥
