* **Translation:** *Terikhi* (animals), *manushi* (humans), *savikaranidevi* (female deities with desires), *gehisansatta* (householders), the mindful muni (ascetic) avoids their dwelling places, their beds, seats, and standing places.

**Meaning:**

The mindful muni avoids staying in the dwelling places of animals, humans, female deities with desires, and un-controlled householders. He does not sleep, sit, or stand in these places.

**This is the secluded bed and seat austerity.**

* **Translation:** *So nama bahiratavo* (that is the external austerity) *jena mano dukkadam na utthedi* (by which the mind does not arise in evil), *jena ya saddha jayati* (by which faith arises), *jena ya joga na hiyate* (by which the practice does not diminish).

This is the external austerity which prevents the mind from arising in evil, which increases faith, and which does not diminish the practice.

**Meaning:**

This six-fold austerity is called external austerity because it is very difficult even for those who are external to the path. I will now describe the internal austerity for those who are internal to the path.
