In the same way we also renounce, for life, any krodh (anger), maan (conceit), maya (deceit), lobha (greed), raag (attachment inspired by love, deceit and greed), dvesh (aversion inspired by suppressed anger and conceit), kalah (dispute), abhyakhyan (blaming falsely), paishunya (inculpating someone), paraparivade (slandering), rati-arati (inclination towards indiscipline and inclination against discipline), mayamrisha (to betray or tell a lie deceptively) and mithyadarshan shalya (the thorn of wrong belief or unrighteousness). We also renounce all activities (of mind, speech and body) not worth doing. We renounce four kinds of food including ashan, paan, khadya and svadya (staple food, liquids, general food and savoury food).
To us our this body is adorable (isht), lovable (kant), beautiful com (manojna), worth cherishing (manaam), worth doting (preya), worth idolizing (prejya), everlasting (although transient, it appears permanent due to ignorance), reliable (one's own body appears to be more reliable than those of others), agreeable (sammat), admirable (bahumat), commendable (anumat) and dear like a casket of ornaments. We are ever cautious that it may not catch cold, suffer heat stroke, suffer hunger or thirst, be bitten by snake, be outraged by thieves, be bitten by drones or mosquitos, be infected with fatal diseases like disturbed humours (vaat or air, pitta or bile and cough or phlegm) or stroke, suffer torments and afflictions (caused by animals, humans and gods). We renounce and forget our attachment for that body till our last breath."
Saying thus those Parivrajaks, who had emaciated their bodies and passions with austerities, abandoned food and water. With perfect serenity and without desiring for death, they made their bodies motionless like logs.

८८. इस प्रकार उन परिव्राजकों ने अनशन द्वारा चारों प्रकार के आहारों से सम्बन्ध 1 तोड़ा तथा बहुत-सा भोजन-काल-(आहार का समय) अनशन द्वारा व्यतीत किया। वैसा
