Such a man should always perform his ablutions with water that has been taken (from the river or tank). Abstention from harm, celibacy, truth, simplicity, freedom, from anger, freedom from decrying others, selfcontrol and habitual freedom from back-biting; with senses controlled, he should steadily pursue these eight vows.
उपस्पृशेदुद्भूताभिरद्धिश्च पुरुषः सदा। अहिंसा ब्रह्मचर्यं च सत्यमार्जवमेव च॥ अक्रोधश्चानसूया च दमो नित्यमपैशुनम्। अष्टस्वेतेषु युक्तः स्याद् व्रतेषु नियतेन्द्रियः॥
