**Commentary:** The intense heat of the months of Jyeshtha and Ashadha is called 'Griishmaabhithaap'. A person touched by this heat, enveloped by it, becomes 'Vimanaska' - dejected, sad, and deeply afflicted by thirst. He becomes extremely weak due to the intense thirst. The sutrakar (author of the sutra) points out that when this heat arises, those who are weak and dull, experience great sorrow. He gives an example: Just as fish, in shallow water, become distressed by the heat of summer and die because they cannot escape, similarly, those with weak souls, even after accepting the path of conduct, become drenched in sweat and dirt, and are scorched by the external heat. They remember cool lakes, streams, sandalwood, and other things that can alleviate the heat. Their minds become agitated, and they become dejected in their practice of restraint.

**Sada Datteshana Dukkha, Jayana Duppanollya. Puhdojhana. ||6||**
**Cheva,**
**Kammatta**
**Dubbhaga**
**Icchansu**
**Chhaya Sada Datteshana Dukham Yancha Duspranodya. Karmartta: Durbhagaschaiveti Aahu: Prithakjanah. ||**
**Translation:** The virtuous person always experiences sorrow from the desire for things given by others, because it is forbidden for them to accept things that are not given for their own use. 'Yancha' - begging is also a hardship, which is difficult to bear. Even so, ordinary people, who do not understand the importance of restraint, see the virtuous person and say, "How unfortunate they are, they are suffering the painful results of their past actions."
**Commentary:** Now, taking up the hardship of begging, the sutra says, "Sada Datta" etc. For the yatis (ascetics), everything given by others, even for things like cleaning their teeth, is 'eshaniya' - it must be accepted without any fault of desire for gain, etc. Therefore, for those who are suffering from hunger and other afflictions, the desire for things given by others is a constant source of sorrow. And even this 'Yancha' - the hardship of begging, is 'pranodyate' - abandoned with difficulty by those with weak souls. And it is said:
"Khijjaee Muhalaavanna Vaaya Gholei Kanthamjhami. Kah Kahkahei Hiyayan Dehiti Para Bhanantass. ||1|| Chhaya - Kshiyate Mukhalaavanya Vaacha Gilaate (Dhoornati) Kanthammadhye, Kahkahkahi Hridayam Dehiiti Param Bhavatas. ||1|| Gatibhramsho Mukhe Dainyam Gaatrasvedo Vivarnata. Marane Yani Chihnani Tani Chihnani Yachke. ||1||"
And so on. Thus, those with great souls, who have abandoned the desire for begging, which is difficult to abandon, follow the path of the great men, serving them and increasing their knowledge, etc. The second half of the verse shows the hardship of begging: "Prithakjanah" - ordinary people, who are not noble, are like the uncultured.
