## Dasha Shruta Skandha Sutra, Third Dasha
The **Utsarga-Marg** is the general path, while the **Apavad-Marg** is the deviation from the **Utsarga-Marg** due to specific circumstances. However, to deviate from the **Utsarga-Marg**, one must seek the permission of the **Shree Bhagwan** and the **Guru**.
In essence, to become **vineet** (humble), one must abandon **Ashatanas** (desires). **Ashatanas** naturally lead to **Atma-viraadhana** (self-defeat) and **Sanayam-viraadhana** (defeat of self-control). Therefore, those who seek their own well-being should completely abandon them. Additionally, indulging in **Ashatanas** diminishes one's **maan** (respect).
Now, the Sutrakar concludes this Dasha by saying:
"These are the thirty-three **Ashatanas** declared by the **Theris** (elders) and **Bhagwans** (divine beings). Thus, the third Dasha is complete."
**Word-by-word meaning:**
* **Eyaao** - These
* **Tao** - They
* **Therihin** - Elders
* **Bhagwantein** - Divine beings
* **Teettisam** - Thirty-three
* **Asayanaao** - Ashatanas
* **Pannattaao** - Declared
* **Tibemi** - Thus
* **Taiya** - Third
* **Dasa** - Dasha
* **Samatta** - Complete
**Original meaning:**
The **Theris** and **Bhagwans** have declared these aforementioned thirty-three **Ashatanas**. Thus, I say.
**Commentary:**
In this Sutra, the Sutrakar concludes the third Dasha by stating that these thirty-three **Ashatanas** were declared by the **Theris** and **Bhagwans**.
In the previous Sutra of this study, it was mentioned that the **Theris** and **Bhagwans** had declared thirty-three **Ashatanas**. The disciple then asked which thirty-three **Ashatanas** were declared by the **Theris** and **Bhagwans**. The Guru responded with "**Etaaha Khulu**" and so on.
